This is the opposite of a complete list of everything going on around town. It's only what intrigues one weirdo (me) by being A LITTLE OUT OF THE ORDINARY while also being FREE or AFFORDABLE. I'll be the fat old fart in the back row.

You are not allowed to have any fun whatsoever until you have been to AT LEAST one protest against the coup. It's patriotic, it's fun, and George Soros pays protesters $300 each.
