We never even had a chance to be bummed out when the Village Voice's annual Siren Festival in Coney Island was cancelled because of the simultaneous announcement of a replacement. But now after seeing the lineup we're all like, "Siren What?"

A Look Back At 2010's Gothamist House
This year we brought our Gothamist House series outside of our office building (where Third Eye Blind's Stephan Jenkins was the first to perform, last year), and to some of our favorite spots in New York. Of course, we didn't ditch our building all together, Henry Wolfe, Snowden, and Harper Blynn all came by to perform there. Following their performances, we branched out and brought The Walkmen to the New York Public Library, the Black Angels to Angel Orensanz, and Small Black to the gorgeous abandoned 5 Beekman building.

Gothamist's Week in Rock, Volume 45

The evening was really a sum of it's parts, all told. The entire presentation of the BQE piece was far more engaging than the actual music itself.

Pencil This In
EVENT: Nerd Alert! Come on by for Nerd Night tonight at Orchid Lounge where there are two geeked out presentations awaiting you. Presentation #1: "Genesis Rules! Wait, I Meant To Say Neurogenesis".

This one is mostly about Tetris. So put the Wii down and get out of the house.
