It’s The Silver Ages, specializing in drinking and singing traditional close harmony men’s chorus tunes from the early 20th century. Um…yeah, we can’t even sorta explain this, but we love it a lot.

Catch them before they get signed to a major and sell out like all the other glee clubs. |

Travel & Leisure editors try to soften the blow by adding, “We were asking people to vote on attractiveness, not unattractiveness. (We) believe there are a lot of attractive people in Philadelphia.” |
