The Place: 210 Cook St.
The Price: FREE
The Details: It's a shitty day for a roof party but I hope that doesn't stop you from celebrating Spring with Willie Mays, Radical Sons, Road Sodas, Nobody Can Dance and Baader Meinhoff Complex. The bands start at 8PM and if you're too cheap to pay $2 for a drink you can also BYOB! Oh and if you're over 26 everyone is going to think you're a NARC, trust me.

KnifeFight: Ths Last Bummer Before Summer
The Deal: Colt 45 Open Bar 10-11PM???
The Place: Public Assembly
The Price: $5
The Details: KnifeFight parties are always a good time. MKING FRNDZ is playing live with DJs Shams, Semen Sperms and more. The official page for this says nothing of an open bar but MyOpenBar is telling us free Colt 45, which sounds about right for Public Assembly. So I'm listing it but proceed with caution.

The Deal: "90 free beers at midnight"
The Place: coco 66

The Details: Another god damn 90's party? It's so fucking depressing that there's ten 90's parties every night. Of course all are throw by 20 year olds who don't know what the fuck they're talking about. Sorry, ignore my old man rant (goddamn punk kids!). The fine print says free beer but don't take my word for it. Either way I believe coco66 has several $3 brews so you're covered. There's also free "90's candy" like Fruit By The Foot and Dunkaroos...really people?

I mean do people really want to hear C&C Music Factory and "Whoop, There It Is" all night because they think it's good? Ugh. Spoof or not there's no doubt that the booze is cheap and the girls are numerous and hot...wait, chicks love terrible music - I get it now!

The Price: $5
The Details: The raddest band in Brooklyn just released their first album and are celebrating with a show tonight at Public Assembly. If you haven't seen Ballzy before they're some kind of perfect stew of Suicidal Tendencies, DRI and Bad Brains. Which means the combination of free malt liquor and fast Brooklyn skate punk is deadly.

The Place: Gallery Bar
The Price: Free if you wear an animal mask, $2 otherwise
The Details: So basically this party revolves around a bunch of half naked girls prancing around in animal masks. It sounds good on paper but in practice this could spell trouble. Trouble, in this case, being a bunch of college "bros" showing up. As long as the penis/vagina ratio doesn't get to cocky then this should be a fun party.
