This Cheap Week In NY

So I've spotted some Heartsrevolution shirts walking around Brooklyn and I just gotta say that I'm glad you're out there. Now that I know you're there, let's go over where you need to be this week on the cheap.

Blonde Redhead is playing tonight on Pier 54 . Show begins at 6. If you feel like drinks afterwards then catch the 2 or 3 train back into Manhattan, transfer to the L, walk to the Highline Ballroom and catch a free DJ set by Nick Catchdubs and Spank Rock's Devlin and Darko (rsvp here ).
Tomorrow night at 7, Dirty Projectors and White Williams play for free on the South Street Seaport .
My personal favorite event of the week takes place on Saturday at 3 on the Central Park Summerstage where Battles, Black Dice and Gang Gang Dance will show off what they got and destroy the expectations that you brought.
Now Sunday is a marathon day that I hope you're ready for. Start off at Union Square to catch the head of New York's second Silent Rave (remember: dance in the streets, not in your room). After getting your blood pumpin' and your feet thumpin' hurry over to the McCarren Park Pool and indulge in a little water gun action with Aesop Rock, Panther and Chin Chin. Chill out and relax until 8 when it's time to head to Sound Fix and catch Oxford Collapse doing what they do best...melting faces.
Good news here is that you can rest Monday, but be sure to catch Ra Ra Riot on Tuesday, 7pm, at The Virgin Megastore in Union Square.

Load all of this into your pda's/blackberrys/ipods/iphones/datebooks/etc and I'll catch ya next week!
