Things to do for April 29, 2010

The Weekender

The Godfather, Tequila and Boating to the Ball Game

The weekend is making you an offer you can't refuse.

Thursday
Rock & Roll Outfitters
KINGDOM COME

Rock & Roll Outfitters

It's a rock club. It's a bar. It's a clothing boutique of printed T-shirts and hand-painted denim. It's also a Coney Island game room. It's one of the craziest retail concepts we've heard of in awhile. It's called Kingdom, and it's opening tonight in Brooklyn for friends and family. This being Williamsburg, the whole neighborhood qualifies as friends and family.

Opens today, Kingdom, 170 N Fourth St, Brooklyn, 917-349-9155

Friday
Game-Day Boating
WATER TAXI

Game-Day Boating

Midnight disco cruises up the Hudson are not the only reason you'll be getting on a boat this spring. Departing from Wall Street's Pier 11, NY Water Taxi has free boats heading to Yankee Stadium and Citi Field on game days. Some people might prefer the subway. But we've never met those people.

Second Coming of Polaroid
INSTANT GRATIFICATION

Second Coming of Polaroid

There are 300 million Polaroid cameras in the world and zero Polaroid film makers. Until now. An art company called the Impossible Project bought the last Polaroid film factory and this Friday celebrates the return of pre-digital spontaneity with wine, cheese and the only new supply of Polaroid film left for sale. Expect photo shoots that will never be posted on Facebook.

Saturday
Tacos and Tequila Times Five
FIVE IS THE MAGIC NUMBER

Tacos and Tequila Times Five

Cienfuegos is the new baby in the family, but for Cinco de Mayo celebrations, the Death & Co crew are calling on their tequila bar Mayahuel to come up with five new taco variations paired with five tequilas. There's also five new chili peppers. In case the tequila fire wasn't hot enough for you.

May 1-5, $50, Mayahuel, 304 E Sixth St (at Second Ave), 212-253-5888

Sunday
Horse Head in Bed
GODFATHERING

Horse Head in Bed

It's not every day that the creator of HBO's seminal Oz series decides to pen a speculative Godfather IV script, hires the cast of Oz to act in it, and stages a pair of shows in Midtown. It's not every day. But it is this Sunday.

May 2, 3pm and 7pm, 59E59 Theater A, 59 E 59th St, for tickets call 212-840-9705 or email here

Tuesday
