Bring your Fangs to Coney Island Tonight
Tell me, broke-asses, just how shameless are ye? Tonight is the last full moon ride on the Cyclone at Coney Island — that is, it’s your last chance to be terrified for your life under a full moon (outside of taking a night trip to East New York, that is).
FREE Booze All Week Long From the Bold Italic
The fine people over at The Bold Italic have taken it upon themselves to encourage men to dress better. And I don’t blame them, we’re certainly a slovenly bunch in this city. Just walk outside and take a look at all the urban lumberjacks roaming around this city. To do

No Mimes Allowed – San Francisco Mime Troupe Performance
Mimes are creepy, aint no denyin’. Good thing for all of you Metamfiezomaiophobics, the San Francisco Mime Troupe is not actually a group of mimes trying to steal your soul and haunt your dreams. As far as I can tell/have been told (from their website), the SF Mime Troupe ‘œcreates
More FREE Weekend Music — Rogue Wave and They Might Be Giants at Stern Grove
I remember seeing Rogue Wave as a college freshman in my school’s tiny multipurpose room, the then four members barely fitting on the makeshift “stage” and me wondering the whole time if any of them would consider banging a just-turned-legal fan. Back then, Out of the Shadow was the album
