Kia Soul Collective: Sometimes We Dance

Guest Post & Photography by Alexis Lerro

Here at Geekadelphia we aren’t necessarily know for our dancing skills… well, unless you’re talking about DDR. Contrary to what you might think, some of us have been know to cut a rug and enjoy the occasional dance beat, which we did last night at the 23rd Street Armory thanks to Kia. In town for four days promoting their newest car the Soul, Kia hosted the jump off fete last night. We got to mingle, test drive the cars, get our photos taken with robots and hear some fantastic sets by DJ Paul Devro–all before Portland-based Yacht took the stage (and floor) to blow our minds with their performance-art-y / inspirational speaker-ish brand of electronic music for one of the best shows we’d seen.

In case you missed it, you have three more days to check out the event. There are more performances tonight, tomorrow and Sunday by the likes of Popo, Amanda Blank, The Drums, Francis and Lights and MGMT, plus deejay sets by Sammy Slice, Nick the V, Dirty South Joe, DJ Sega and Dave P.

Thanks to Kia for inviting us to this event, and letting us show Philly that even geeks know how to party. It was a blast.
