What better way to end the summer than with rooftop brunches? The Hotel Chantelle offers an extremely reasonable drink and brunch menu including 92 cent cocktails and awesome lobster rolls.

Teenage Guide to Popularity: MTV 500
Videology at 4:30
Tickets: FREE

Videology's Teenage Guide to Popularity decided to embark on a musical journey through time by attempting to play every single music video from MTV's top 500 list. If those of you recall, MTV's top 500 list aired in the spring of 1997 and featured classics like Michael Jackson's Thriller and Madonna's Vogue. The feat obviously can't be accomplished in one night, so Videology's been going through the list over the course of a few nights and will be continuing it this Sunday!
