Black Oak Nights – New York

230 Fifth Rooftop Bar

Did we actually get a little reprieve in the weather yesterday? We must have, because for the first time in weeks, I woke up and my living room wasn’t 80 degrees at 7 o’clock in the morning. I don’t know if we’ll be that lucky today, but if we aren’t, we have plenty of indoor activities for the young, black professional to take advantage of today. From comedy shows to Caribbean and hip-hop parties, we have you covered on the Tuesday Black Oak Nights Rundown for July 27, 2010.

Blue Smoke, NYC

Tuesday is here, and oh what a Tuesday it will be! Looks like the weather will get away from that rain crap we saw yesterday and should return to the sweltering hotness that has been the Summer of 2010. So after you’re outside enjoying the weather, we will get you inside to avoid it. By the way, we apologize for not bringing the rundown to you yesterday, but I wasn’t feeling all that well—but we’ll have such an issue covered next time around. So with our sorrows attached, here is your Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for July 20, 2010.

The River Cafe

It’s Tuesday, and if you’re reading this, that means you made it through the first day of the week. Don’t worry young, black professionals, you’re only four days away from the weekend, and we at Black Oak Nights will do our best to fill your time between now and then. Here is the Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for July 13, 2010.

It’s Tuesday, and hopefully you had a long, relaxing weekend. If you didn’t, there’s no time like the present to make up for lost time and chill and relax at one of the afterwork spots below. We didn’t go with any nightclub ventures this Tuesday, mostly because there aren’t that many late night parties for young, black professionals on this particular day. However, our reluctance to list nighttime outings for tonight also comes from the fact that most of you really “got it in” this weekend, and so we know you’re looking for something a little more laid back this evening. Hopefully our assumptions are right, and if they aren’t—well, there really wasn’t much else to give you. Here is the Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for July 6, 2010.

Tuesday is a good rebound day. You were probably tired all day Monday, and decided to keep it in Monday night. I don’t blame you. Afterall, if you party hard on the weekend, you shouldn’t have the energy for a full day of activities come Monday morning. However, on Tuesdays, there are no excuses. So I hope you got your sleep in last night, because there is plenty to do on today’s Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for June 29, 2010.

50 Cent is coming to town, Negril Village is live and popping, and cookie classes are all the rage this Tuesday. Of course, there is nothing better than being able to sit back with your friends, drink a few potent potables, and talk the night away outside on a beautiful New York City summer night. Well, you can do just that, and more, with a few of the events on the Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for June 22, 2010.

Diddy...in shades.

Tuesday is a big night in New York City. The NBA Finals could possibly come to an end, which would give start to the official NBA offseason. That means by this time one month from now, we could be watching LeBron James holding up a New York Knicks jersey. But I digress. Outside of watching the game, there are plenty of other things on the Tuesday agenda, including salsa lessons, bowling, and well—duh, basketball! Here is your Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for June 15, 2010.

Harlem Lanes

The sun is shining on New York City today, and more importantly, it’s shining on Harlem, but I will get to that in a second. We are two days into the workweek, so I feel like you deserve to treat yourself just for making it this far! We have a couple of food and entertainment options to help you celebrate this monumental occasion—that occasion being Tuesday—and of course there is a late-night party or two on the agenda—you know, just in case food and spirits alone won’t do the trick. Here is your Tuesday Nightlife Rundown for June 8, 2010.
