► Say you don't see enough Michael Baer, the man-boy behind Philly's first true boho breakfast nook Blue in Green? He's got a B'n'G at 10th and Chestnut a-coming any sec.

► Rumahhh: Is Daryl Hall (when he ain't busy making that "and Oates" record with Chromeo) singing on Philly dog Mutlu's moody Manhattan label debut full-length?

► Not a rumor no more: John Eddie, Philly's grittiest songwriter/Caribbean cruise leader (starting Feb. 4; check johneddie.com) wrote a song, "Loud," which Sammy Hagar will cut and then debut during his monster truck tour with Kenny Chesney. "Who knew I was such a hard rocker?" laughed Eddie who wrote recently for Kid Rock. 

► A weekly lesbian/bi Wednesday hosted by a gal named Paris? A sexy secretary/executive romp on Jan. 25 hosted by Dommy B? That's Glam on S. Second. Somebody's definitely getting laid. Yahoo.

► The other glam: when Greg Weeks' Language of Stone label called on Golden Ball's Gillian Chadwick to rock out, glammily, she responded wearing colorfully striped socks with her band Ex Reverie and its Space Oddity-like debut The Door into Summer.

► It's two, two, two mints in one when The Mural and the Mint debuts Jan. 26. It's ex-Cordalene Michael Kiley with Eliza Jones (Buried Beds) 'n' Jack McBrearty (Falkonr) doing perf-art-rawk-raves with dance-y Nichole Canuso and prance-y Pig Iron-ers James Sugg and Dito van Reigersberg. There's an EP (Caterpillar-Cocoon-Butterfly) that Brian McTear recorded and a Parlor show on S. Broad.

► If you want yer art in a Garage and not a Parlor, Philadelphyinz' Apt One and DJ Stumble (Seclusiasis) run the voodoo down at 1535 Ridge on Jan. 25 for "Money Folders" with MCs S-Five, MAGr and 19-year-old Drexel-ite Scanz.

► PHAG's Jason Crook is showing off his Lion Project epic in the window of the Walnut Street shop. The sculpture, to be auctioned in May, will benefit Penn State Brandywine scholarship fund.

► Showing off art in a window? Philly's scribbliest political cartoonist John Overmyer's Commentary exhibition is at Baltimore Ave.'s Green Line Café.

► WHOWHATWHERE: Michael and Kevin Bacon brought their alma mater, the 100-year-old Settlement Music School, a check from centennial sponsors Rohm and Haas at the Northeast Airport. 'Zat sound shady? When 100 years of AKA got celebrated, I shuddered: Mike Hoffman's record shoppe ain't that old. It was the Alpha Kappa Alpha Mike Jackson's "Urban Socialite" regaled at Reef, right before sultry soul-songstress Chrisette Michele walked through the door. "Bowtie Guy" Randy Robinson's Distante shop hosted a benefit for Kofi Asante's Philadelphia Comprehensive Center for Fathers with Rainmakers' H. Stephen Brady 'n' Dr. Keith Leaphart and Philly Flow's William Carter IV, Esq. Right before flying cross-country to kick Wired FM's Justice's ass, Danny Bonaduce told me, "If I had my choice of places in which to end my radio career, I'd make it Philly. I got my first radio job here and I got in the best shape of my life when I ran along the Schuylkill daily." 

► Is Anthony Bonett leaving his co-owning/cooking spot at Oceanaire? That's the rumor.

► You have until Jan. 27 to spy the last Alex Baker-curated PAFA exhibit with Philly's confessional graffiti/pop artist Steve Powers. See it. 

► Spiritually, psychically, you can't do both: Either see a Harvard Hasty Pudding-bound Paris Hilton at Franklin Mills Jan. 24 toting around The Hottie and the Nottie. Or worship at the altar of independent film overlord John Sayles Jan. 29 at the International House benefit première of his Honeydripper for the good of Gretchen Clausing's Scribe Video Project. "Lisa Gay Hamilton recommended the Scribe to us and it seemed like a very good fit," says Sayles as to why he chose to benefit our fave film center. Want more? Read it at citypaper.net/nakedcity.
