East Village: Music & Movies in the park series!
Just found out about this from Phil Hartman of Two Boots Pizza — every Thursday night this summer, they’re putting on shows with COMPLETELY AWESOME movies and fantastic bands in Tompkins Square Park. It started last night, and will run through Sept. 1. All shows start an hour before sunset and are totally FREE.
This is why I live in NYC, people.
