What’s a better salve for the soul in these harrowing economic times than cheap booze and trampy ladies? (We mean that respectfully.) Descend into the bowels of the former boiler-room-turned-luxury-lounge at the Edison for a happy hour of 35-cent martinis, followed by a free jazz show and some saucy burlesque action. Though this night of under-a-dollar entertainment costs the same as Depression-era entertainment, we’re hoping that the ladies are not also straight from the 1930s. Grandma, put your pants on.
108 W. 2nd St., Downtown; 8 p.m.; free
