9/24 & 9/25: Weekend Preview

Let's not kid ourselves. With a quartet of rowdy Mainers visiting town tonight, I will not type anything else before the morning.

These are some cheap highlights for the weekend.

--------------------------------------------------------------

On Saturday:

Smithsonian Magazine's Museum Day lets you choose from a long list of museums in the USA and print a free pass for two...

Or you can visit the studios of artists all over JP on both days...

The South End hosts the Beantown Jazz Festival along the usual stretch of Columbus Ave. P-Funk's Bernie Worrell is playing with two groups...

For a guy who doesn't eat fluff, I often got a kick out of the annual "What the Fluff?" Festival (invented in Somerville!) and its program of music and zany fluff fun...

Of course, I've mentioned "Crash Safely" and "One Night Band #3" as two standout musical offerings (both $10 advance tickets)...

On Sunday:

Harvard Ave will be even livelier than usual courtesy of the Allston Village Street Fair...

Mobius has moved to Cambridge, and they invite folks to draw performance art. (They're even having an 'open house' reception on Saturday night...)

Further up Mass Ave, you'll find a "Hootenanny" nestled in a Harvard Square courtyard...

Even further up Mass Ave in Arlington, the Regent Theatre is having a 95th anniversary concert ($10 advance)...

You probably can still RSVP for a "Boardwalk Empire" party; there might be a free Canadian whiskey drink in it for you...

See below for my full cheap suggestions.



Type to you in the morning...
