Weekend: Crooked Disco, parks and sweata weatha

So ya know Central Park offers free walks 5 days a week? It's a pretty standard rotation, but Saturday from 1-3 p.m. there's a bit something special: Scientist in the City (Get it? Like Sex in the City, "Chasing Biodiversity by Day and Night in the Urban Environment" is hot, hot, hot ;) Meet at Belvedere Castle. Walk from B, C at American Museum of Natural History/81st, 1 at 79th or 6 at 77th.

FreeNYC's Saturday offering is the Crooked Disco Play Date w/ Round Table Knights at Le Poisson Rouge (gallery bar) 9 p.m.-4 a.m. RTK has an '80s + electronic feel, while DJs of Crooked Disco seem to favor a fun hip-hop/house mix. Here's video of the latter:

Le Poisson Rouge (158 Bleecker St.) is near Washington Square Park, so practically any train'll get you there: 1, B, D, F, V, C, E, R, W, 6. (By the way, check out the Washington Square Park Photo Project.)

Sunday it's supposed to be sunny sweata weatha. Get thee to a park! (And if you have any brunch recommendations, do share [jmnyc.yelp.com].)

Have an awesome weekend!
