A one night stand in Hell's Kitchen proved particularly unsatisfying when a thug stopped mid-coitus to rob his partner of a BlackBerry and $40. The two had just met and went back to the victim's place on 43rd Street near Ninth Avenue at 7:15 p.m., according to the Post's police blotter. They were going at it when all of a sudden the thief took out a knife, grabbed the 34-year-old victim's valuables and left. Before even finishing! Scant information on this one, unfortunately: no mention of the victim's gender or where the thief kept his knife (was he wearing a holster?).

Whatever your reason may be for not attending this year’s US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen, you need not worry, a bit of it is coming to New York throughout the week.

Self described as “New Zealand’s fourth most popular folk parody duo”, Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie perform their own ingenious brand of acoustic musical comedy. The Guardian described them as having “virtuoso musicality and superbly gormless banter”. If you see one gormless show this week, Gothamist thinks this should be it. more ›
