Title: I'm visiting New York, Pt Trois
Post by: Laurie on August 13, 2007, 02:21:04 PM: I will be in and around the New York town from 8/16-8/25. Don't make fun of me because I still go to CMJ. I will be there a relatively long time, so I hope to visit the Isamu Noguchi museum way out in Queens.

I expect you guys should tell me which UCB shows are awesome.

The Stepfathers are also worth seeing on Friday, and Reuben Williams on Saturday, and it looks like Bro'in Out on Monday the 20th is going to feature the impossibly lovely John Oliver (and Andrew WK?!). I haven't been to a proper non-marathon ASSSSCAT in ages so I can't really speak for it -- anyone know who's in it these days?

Also, CMJ is in October...did you mean you were coming then? If so, pls disregard everything I just said.
