Music Performance: Freedy Johnston
For all of you looking for a music fix this weekend, be sure to check out the Union Hall bar at 702 Union Street, just off of Fifth Avenue, Friday June 19th, for a live performance by Freedy Johnston with Rebecca Pronsky. The last time Johnston performed on the avenue was last year at Southpaw, and he promises this show will be equally as memorable, according to the Brooklyn Paper.
According to his website, Johnston is releasing a new album this fall, entitled Rain in the City , being distributed by BarNone Records. If you want a sample of some of Johnston's music, check out his Myspace page, where you can hear a few tracks off the new album.
The show starts at 8PM, with tickets running $15, but you can get started earlier, as the bar opens around 4 o'clock for all of you looking to get the weekend started a little early in preparation for the official start of summer. This is a great way to celebrate.
For more information, visit the Union Hall website, or contact them in person.

A Summer Camp to Get Excited About
Normally, we would have our weekly interview for you to peruse with your weekly wake-up cup of coffee, but stay tuned for something later this week since we are working on some exciting interviews. That being said, it is an exciting week on the avenue, full of fun activities ready to welcome the summer with open arms and kiss those fall showers goodbye, hopefully!
This week sees the beginning of an exciting opportunity for all the young ones who will be finishing up classes at 51, 39, 282, 321, etc. If your day camp doesn't start for a couple of weeks, take advantage of the opportunity at Brooklyn Mercantile (335 5th Avenue between 3rd and 4th streets), who are offering camps for kids and teenagers teaching crafts and sewing techniques. Today begins the first of the week long camps that will run all summer long. You can call the store or drop by to sign-up!
