Here’s more info on the Free! Teen Night at the ICA tomorrow night.  I have been trying to convince my son that we should organize a few friends of his to go, but as often the case, he is so far apathetic and doesn’t want to go.  Sounds like a great event to me!  If anyone wants to try and organize any BLA kids to go at this late date/short notice, email me at or call me at 617 435-0796.
