Oooo..Beth Orton. There were a couple of interesting shows at I saw on the Summerstage schedule (mainly Junot Diaz and Los Lonely Boys). Now I need the Bryant Park and Brooklyn Bridge Park film schedules, the schedule for Madison Square Park, The River to River Stuff, and Lincoln Center Outdoor stuff, and I'll be all set to figure out my summer outing schedule. Whee Warmer Weather!

Indeed! I saw a film in Brooklyn Bridge park last year, and I want to see more this year - it was SO nice.

Yay warmer weather! Yay outdoor stuff!

BRAZILIAN GIRLS for the WIN!!

Thank you for posting the schedule. I love Brazilian Girls and I try to see them whenever the band is in town.

You're welcome! I knew that someone on my list was a big Brazilian Girls fan, so I wanted to make sure I posted this. :)

Ooooh. SHINY.

(you know, I really have to try to make a weekend trip down your way. Or several of them. It's not THAT far...)

Every time anyone says "It's not far" to me, I think of this one commercial with this dude who's lost in Scotland or Ireland and asks these old men for directions. Hee!

Oh my god, I remember that commercial!
