Weekend Roundup
All dressed up with no place to go? With our Weekend Roundup series, you'll always have plans for your two favorite nights of the week.
Returning from exotic spring break locales means getting through a hard week of adjusting to the life and times of the daily Harvard routine. A lively weekend is in order if you've made it to 5 p.m. Friday and we've found at least one party, as well as quite a few shows, that promise not to disappoint.
PARTIES
OH! The 2000s Dance
What: Do you remember when Napster was more popular than iTunes, when Justin Timberlake was still part of 'NSync? While a solo career has now done wonders for JT's hair, come relive the rest of the decade that escaped you exactly 84 days ago. Admission is $5, but drinks are cheap (if you're legal). "That's Hot."

This post has been revised to reflect the following correction:
CORRECTION: March 25, 2010
An earlier version of the Mar. 25 post "Weekend Roundup" incorrectly gave the date of the "OH! The 2000s Dance" as Saturday, Mar. 27. In fact, the event is occuring on Friday, Mar. 26.
