And to get in the mood, watch two men dance to a Donna Summer tune at an Amsterdam Avenue street fair last year.
Yay! Even though it’s cloudy and 43 degrees it’s tube sock flea market season. Summer is just around the corner!
AREPAS!! AREPAS!!
ALSO:GRILLED MYSTERY-MEAT, BURNED CORN-ON-DA-COB, WATERY-MELON, MAGIC MOPS, I-PHONE GADGETS, BAD NYC ART, AND MORE!
LUV IT!!!!!!!!!
The first street fair was actually last weekend, Broadway from 110-116.
I know, Pixcat! I read the headline and I was like, “Wait! I went to the first one last weekend!”
Love the street fairs … even though the socks have disappeared … 🙂
I’ve been at home for hours, listening to the inane automated commercials blaring from the street fair under my window.
When do these effing street fairs end (time of day)?
