Louise has noted below on The Weekend List that tomorrow is the annual Coney Island Mermaid Parade.  While not really a music event, this year Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson are the King and Queen of the parade.  And Brooklyn-based Phosphorescent has a song on their new album, Here’s to Taking It Easy, called Mermaid Parade.  So this is the day for you to download that song (legally, of course) over at Now I’ve Heard Everything.
