FUNK ADVISORY: Near-perfect weather conditions and early summer hormonal recalibration patterns will leave residents of the Philadelphia region on the verge of getting it on throughout the weekend.

Under no circumstances should you be caught indoors from Friday through Saturday. Adverse effects may include dizziness, excess clothing, cheap beer and other indicators of hipsterati nervosa.

Residents are advised to proceed immediately to the 4th Annual West Oak Lane Jazz & Arts Festival for a four-stage infusion of Soul, Skronk and Old Skool Funk courtesy of The Ohio Players, War, Roy Ayers and some 500 of Philadelphia's finest musicians and spoken-word artists.

It all kicks off Friday night with sets by Roy Ayers, Pieces of a Dream, and a complete city block of food, drink, art and street vendors!

UWISHUNU is providing free round-trip transportation from 2pm-10pm on the hour this Saturday and Sunday from the Independence Visitors Center on 6th and Market.
