Wednesday Overdrive

Wednesday 4:00pm - 6:00pm

Have you ever been on your way home on a Wednesday and thought "I sure could step out into that traffic"? Well don't! That's a horrible idea, and most definitely not the best course of action. In fact, that's definitely one of the top ten things not to do in traffic. Probably first, ahead of polo. Rather, you should put on your headphones (when you're away from cars in general, unless you listen to 2ser IN your car, in which case, crank it up!) and listen to Overdrive. We'll give you lots of good ideas for things to do, like gallerys and festivals and public arts and musical pursuits, both live and recorded.

Next Week: Winter!
