Even with of all the research I do to find free events, promotions, and other happenings throughout NYC, some things still slip by me. But that is what makes this city great. The spontaneity of finding something open to everyone is always there. This night, I randomly came across "The Shack Summer Netogether," a promotion for Radio Shack. For three days, a larger than life laptop with a cam, was set up in the middle of Time Square broadcasting performances and events taking place in San Francisco. Likewise, there was a similar set up in Cali showing what was going on in New York City. This was to sort of virtually bring the two cities together but the entire thing was really weird and ordinary to me. There was supposed to be some comedians on my side but things were running off schedule. So I ditched that popsicle stand! (That phrase is from a movie, don't ask.)
If I had learned about this beforehand, I would have definitely showed up to see the Melanie Fiona performance that was broadcasted from New York, on the day before. Oh well! Just gotta be more on top of my free ish game from now on.
