Labor-free Baltimore

Oh boy, Labor Day Weekend. If you're smart and not leaving town due to traffic, gas prices or a lack of a herd mentality, there's plenty for you to see and do: 

Friday there's the Little Italy open air film fest, dancing at Lithuanian Hall; the Ren Fest and the State Fair Saturday and the No Rest Fest at the Copycat Building, featuring Thrust Lab, Brendan Sullivan, Smarts, Hitty Titty, F*cking Magic and Anup Kishore Pradhan. 

Saturday, one of my favorite dudes is having a birthday party at his house, which isn't that amazing except he has a pool, which is. Happy birthday Justin!

Sunday is a crab feast for me, followed by a shift at the Endless Summer event at the Ottobar, a CCRG fundraiser from 1 p.m.-2 a.m. It is free all day inside and out until 7 p.m. when it's $10. Live music to include: Sean K. Preston, Revelevens, Atomic Mosquitos, Scary River, The Snowmen, Two if by Sea (final show), The Oranges Band. Additional entertainment to include El Pollo Diablo (insult comic), a dunk tank, water-balloon fight, carnival games, raffle, volley ball, pie-eating contest, cheeky monkey sideshow and food vendors. Still not enough for you? What the hell else could you possibly want?
