Godbox may be gone, but two of their members are currently in the crushing Philly Death-Metal band "Trephination". They're also responsible for the myriads of McDonald's "Double-checked" stickers everywhere there.

I was the singer of that band and its so funny to hear that... We had rolls of them... Our drummer had a huge mix-matched kit with THOUSANDS of
"doublechecked" McDonalds stickers on it... We even had a gig at the Troc where they made us clean up the stickers our fans riddled the front of the stage with...
We LIVED in Byberry. I have piles of pics of us in there... You guys are the BEST for putting up this site...

And so you think it's funny to vandalize a part of history, even if it is no longer standing? Child.

do you know that I worked with one of the members of Godbox and didn't know it until he overheard me and another friend talking about going to Nynerry after work. He was one of the persons responsible for all the 1.00 mcdomnald stickers all over the place

At that point, I think, Byberry was so covered in graffiti that I doubt one less tag would have changed much.
