I LOVE New York in the summer. I've been looking up things to do for the past two hours and there is STILL MORE!

I've written it down in my planner but I want to share all these great things with everyone! Let me know if you're interested in going.

( I'm not even bothering with August yet, there's too damn much. )

Oh shit.

Guys, I am totally going to see The Boredoms' 77 drummer performance on Star Day (7/7/07) and if you'd like to join me you must RSVP here. (it's free!)

Just read that first link, you'll see how insanely awesome this is going to be!

Yayyyy to Paul for letting me know about this!

What the hell, I want to see The New Pornographers on 4th of July, they're playing a free show at Battery Park and the tickets are freaking gone as of June 20th. What?? This happened last year with Belle and Sebastian but I wasn't paying much attention since I'm not very interested in them. I do not remember at all how I managed to go two years ago ( Read more... )

For the past couple of years I've been trying to compile things to do in New York in the summer, cause there's an explosion of events and it's fairly nice out.

Well it looks like a couple of people beat me to the punch.

Behold! Massive, fairly complete lists of FREE! things to do... in all boroughs! How's that for intense?

Interesting stuff:

- "Prohibition lite" still rampant in US - a mother is jailed for two and a half years for giving her 16 year old son and friends alcohol in the privacy of their own home.

I'm on the Nonsense NYC mailing list, which tells you about strange and fun stuff going on in town for the week and GUESS WHAT I SAW:

Hey people who like to take advantage of free promotions and who have Bank of America:

Apparently in the month of May you can flash your BoA card at certain museums and get two free tickets! Awesome! I use a different bank unfortunately but you guys should totally take advantage. Or bring me along? Please? :D

Since I'd been meaning to get out more, hung out tonight with Paul and gf Jessica at Monkey Town, which is apparently the coolest fucking place on earth. Of course it's in Williamsburg. Ok picture this: beyond the crochet-covered bar's ceiling and cardboard chandielier you enter a hallway meant to be sterile but instead covered in art. Side doors ( Read more... )

Last year I co-directed The Fusion Film Festival, which is an NYU student-run fest promoting women in film and collaboration with male and female filmmakers. This year, since I'm not a student anymore, I'm not really involved. I can't believe it's been an entire year! Fusion 2007 starts tomorrow and lasts until Saturday night. You guys should ( Read more... )
