The weekend is here, and with temperatures still a lil' chillier than our brain-clocks would prefer, here are some mostly indoor ideas for your metropolitan weekend.
Friday: Eastern State Penetentiary is free today. It's a historic/haunted prison, so take that chick from your history honors seminar. You can squeal and hold each other in the darkness.
At The Rotunda tonight, there's a free concert by musicians that the New York Times calls "deft and boomy, ragged and precise.” What does that mean? Whatever! Free concert!
Saturday: The American Swedish Historical Society is holding a Waffle Day Celebration. 10 dollars per person for all-you-can-eat waffles. Eat away your pain/stress/sadness thanks to The Swedes: truly a clutch cultural group since the 1600s.
Sunday: Our friends over at Uwishunu have made such a good Philly St. Patrick's Day Guide that we are not worthy of attempting to replicate it! Check it out here.
It's also Poetry Night at Seeds Gallery in West Philly, so shake off the drunkies and break out your snapping fingers for a good old-fashioned community open-mic.
