It’s a smidge gloomy outside, but we’re hoping it’ll clear up by happy hour. TRIO? Belmont? Little Woodrow’s? 219 West? Can’t decide. If free booze is your thing, though, you won’t want to miss Austin Monthly’s May issue party at the Russell Collection Fine Art Gallery on West 6th. Be the first to see the…

Friday night with the Austin SSC
I have spent many a Saturday morning with the venerable sports and social club, but that’s more sports than social. Turn the norm on its head with a Friday night Social–doesn’t hurt that you could potentially win vodka for a year: It’s about time for a social event that anyone can attend, regardless of whether…

Friday Night Bikes (& Guinness)
Ride your bike to Mellow Johnny’s, pay $10, and be rewarded with apps, wine, and watching Lance peddle in Cali. I didn’t like the shop the one time I went, but now that I know the Juan Pelota joke, I can’t help but promote anything to do with it. Ends just in time to peddle…
Hello Tyson … free morning and afternoon screening
As if visiting a farm (see previous post) weren’t enough for a fun-filled Friday, the Carver is showing a free screening of Kings of the Evening, a Tyson Beckford-filled flick filmed in Austin!
