On Saturday May 21st BB Kings plays host to the regional finals of the US Air Guitar Championship. The rules are simple. No band. No instrument. No shame. Each contender gets to pick their own song and has 60 seconds to bring the house down. The top five move on to the next round and must perform to a surprise rock legend.
This picture is a virtual image of the New York City skyline as it looks at this very moment.

Craft Night
Every Monday night Williamsburg's Stain Bar hosts PAINTstain, a "talent optional" craft night. Dabble a bit - sketch, sculpt, knit, write, whatever strikes your fancy. Bring friends and create a collaborative work, or just sink deep into a comfy couch have a drink and listen to the live jazz.
Smut
A respectable array of New York City writers gathers at Galapagos every Monday for this strangely highbrow/lowbrow weekly smut, erotic performance, reading, and discussion. The quality of the readings and performances vary wildly, but at its best this can be really, very amusing stuff and the Galapagos space, large with tall ceiling and an easily accessible bar, makes an ideal venue.

FFWD
On the first Wednesday night of every month Lolita Bar hosts DJ Ty and the indie rock night FFWD. Sets feature a mix of new released and yet to be released tracks with a few indie hits from the last year thrown in for good measure. You can check out set lists from previous nights and even scam a few MP3s at the FFWD site.
