This weekend is the second annual Love on the Streets Festival. Held at Paines Park, it is an all day festival that supports the Franklin Pains Skatepark Fund (FPSF) in its attempt to spread the love of skateboarding and support urban culture in and around the city. While last year the festival filled the park with circus performers, artisan coffee, and a mess of food trucks, this year is really upping the ante in terms of entertainment. Wahoo Tacos, along with The Electric Factory, will be sponsoring a skating competition, where the lucky winner will take home $2,000. New this year are a couple key cogs that were missing last year. First and foremost, Beer. There was not a beer as far as the eye could see last year. Unfortunately, it will be coming from a Budweiser Beer Garden so you might just want to bring your own. Live art has been added to the mix, with renowned graffiti artists Distoart and Getup to make the festival a multi-sensory experience. Another enticing addition this year is a Flea Market with over 40 vendors selling a vast array of lightly used treasures that are just waiting for a good home.

The music is also a strong suit of the festival once again, bringing both variety and congruity to make for an eclectic but fitting lineup of artists. There is a bit of a punk tinge to this years lineup, with artists like Mumblr, JANK (who have a great new album Awkward Pop Song coming out May 20 on Creep Records), Lithuania (DRGN KING's Dom Angelella and Dr. Dog's Eric Slick), and Steady Hands (a.k.a. Sean Huber from Modern Baseball). Other artists include The Obsessives, Vicky Speedboat, Plainview, Endless Taile, and RFA. For the skate competition and throughout the day, there will be tunes complimentary of Fishtown Beats, Frank Sriracha, and Aurize. All in all, a pretty dope collection of happenings that are sure to be a good time for a good cause. Paine's Park, N. 24th St., 12pm-10pm, Free, All Ages - Adam G.

Vicky Speedboat (the combination of Modern Baseball/Steady Hands’s Sean Huber and W.C. Lindsay’s Will Lindsay) delivers the goods on their debut EP Two Years No Basement. The emotive fire rages in these impassioned anthems. Bottling up pressure through personally-tinged, relatable narratives and instrumentation that sprints forward in an unfiltered, exhilarating release, Vicky Speedboat have set the bar for their collaborative project, exulting stormy memories of youth. They'll be making their debut live performance tonight at Bourbon & Branch, and will be joined by a blaze of guitar licks, setting the path for Lansdale rockers The Sixties. Like-minded, Lansdale-rooted, local trio Birthday Boy percolates a rumbling gritty honesty, while the pensive sensitive rock of Newark, Delaware’s Ringfinger gathers steam, working through matters from soft to searing. Bourbon & Branch, 705 N. 2nd St., 8pm, $10, 21+ - Michael Colavita
