PhilaMOCA — Attraction in Philadelphia

I got lost standing at the door! The building isn't well marked to say it is PhilaMOCA, unless the MO stands for mortuary, which is what is on the building.

Inside was somewhat of two-storied open floor plan with an upper floor rail-seating area, from what I could see. Sort of a single row mezz.

I was there to see the movie "A Field Guide To Evil" and it was... interesting. I thought it would be more Horror/Gore, but in the end, we laughed very much! If you get the chance, see it! Melon head children were funny, but "a little bird told me" the last lore from Hungary was over the top funny, in a morbid sort of way!

Some of the people there (I don't know if they were employees or volunteers) were less than pleasant, but the host of the event was jovial and good-natured.

There is a staging area, so if you are looking for a small area to perform, this place will do fine. It probably holds about 50-70 people (maybe more, but I don't know fire code regs for that building), plus your band or any gear you need to set up.

The small crowd at the sold out event made for a small line and it was pretty great since everyone wanted a picture and autograph with George. Owners are very relaxed about eating and drinking in the theater and even have snacks and drinks available for a small donation. I'll be...

The bands I saw we’re fantastic but overall I felt uncomfortable in the venue. There is no security so I was continuously harassed by this drunk woman. She followed me, would grab over me, and this was the woman I bought my water from. I have no idea if she was an employee or a drunk woman working the counter. She was trying to touch all the girls and the man who we bought the tickets from was allowing her to grind on him and not telling her to stop. This is completely inappropriate behavior and whoever own this place needs to protect...
