Well I really wanted..."wicked" Wicked seats, and plus August 28th is my birthday. So I figured what better what to spend my 23rd than in New York.

definitely check out the nyc fringe festival, the self-styled "largest multi-arts festival in north america."

i usually see between 5 and 10 shows each year, and always find a gem or two in the lot.
