411: June 12-15, 91 Franklin St (between Broadway and Church), behind Rogan shop, 646-827-7554

Rag & Bone
The macho denim gurus lure us west for this midweek sale on the remains of their spring/summer '08 collection, including jeans, cardigans and khaki explorer-wear.

The Brooklyn Heights bistro celebrates the season with the French lawn sport of peasants. The tourney runs all day, but petanque glory lasts forever.

Vampire Weekend Plays SummerStage

The prep-rock quartet officially enters the mainstream with a UES-friendly Central Park show. Expect sub-Saharan weather and music.
