July, July! Not only is it a choice tune by The Decemberists, but it is a midsummer month filled with illegal fireworks, pool parties and barbecues with so much lighter fluid your Uncle Hank singes off both his eyebrows–again. Some of us are already nursing painful sunburns, but it’s worth it to laze outside for a while before the clouds of gnats consume you.
Aside from simmering in the sun, there are a good number of free activities to keep you happy and out of the doldrums this week, not least of which are the myriad Fourth of July celebrations. Read on.
Monday
- Invasion: DJ Five, Joe Maz, Ross One and DJ Irie go all out at Mokai. Sign up to the guest list for free entry before 12:30.
