Events

  1. Sugar, We're Hoein Down

    6:30 PM · 3 Dollar Bill

    A queer hoe-down title at 3 Dollar Bill has a specific party logic that beats another generic dance listing.

  2. Time to Die

    6:45 PM · Anthology Film Archives

    Anthology's acid-western frame makes this Arturo Ripstein screening stranger than a straight repertory western.

  3. DOWNSTAIRS: Level Up! Video Game Club

    7:00 PM · Purgatory

    Purgatory's downstairs video-game club reads like a small social ritual, not a broad nightlife pitch.

  4. Freeda’s Game Night

    7:00 PM · Sid Gold's Request Room

    Sid Gold's makes game night feel like a piano-bar-adjacent neighborhood oddity instead of meetup filler.

  5. Write Club

    7:00 PM · Caveat

    Caveat is built for combative literary comedy, and this format sounds sharper than a normal stand-up lineup.

  6. Notes from a Narcissistic Negro

    7:30 PM · QED

    The title and QED setting point to a personal, small-room performance rather than another polished showcase.

  7. Club Lingerie

    7:30 PM · Spectacle

    Spectacle plus Jared Masters' low-budget nightclub slasher is exactly the scrappy cult-film pocket to surface.

  8. Commodity Trading: Dies Irae [Numb Spiral 4]

    10:00 PM · Spectacle

    A Spectacle slot with this title sounds like experimental-video static turned into a late-night dare.

  9. Vinyl After Hours

    11:30 PM · Mezzrow, New York, NY

    Late vinyl inside Mezzrow is a narrow after-hours lane for listeners who want the night to get more obsessive.

  10. Jam Session Hosted By Jason Clotter

    11:45 PM · Smalls Jazz Club, New York, NY

    A midnight-adjacent Smalls jam is for people following the players after the headliner crowd thins out.
