Saturday's opening shot

Given the all-day rain forecast, staying indoors and reading seems like a good option... we started "No New York" by Adele Bertei, which focuses on the women who made up the No Wave scene ... and we just got to the chapter titled "The East Village."

There's a thoughtful Q&A with Bertei here at The Quietus. 

Elsewhere today, there are Car-Free Earth Day activities around the city. (We drove around but couldn't find any car-free activities.) 

On a serious note, the car-free activities planned on Avenue B in conjunction with the annual Spring Awakening celebration via LUNGS will now take place on May 9.

    Why are all the cross streets between A and B barricaded by police today?
