Default It's a Philly Jawn, Y'all



So the theme of this journal is simple. It's anything and almost everything connected to the city of Philadelphia - especially musicwise. It will also include bands from the surrounding areas, musicians who moved there or adopted it as their home town. Perhaps the album was recorded there, or maybe it's a recording that contains only one Philadelphia musician. Maybe the only connection is that there was a concert that was filmed in Philadelphia. Well, that might be stretching things ... eh maybe it's both complex and simple, who knows?

Ok, it's been bothering me all day so I have to ask: what is a "jawn"?

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

I've lived in Philly for a decade and this is the first time I've heard of this.
