Calling all Morning People

If you're a morning person (I'm not), and you love top 40 music, The Today Show and Good Morning America free Friday morning summer concerts are for you. These start somewhere between 7 am and 8 am and are usually crowded with bushy-tailed bright-eyed awake people and a few squinting, mole-in-daylight office drones who are heading to work early (ahem). Last year I saw Kanye West, Christina Aguilera and Beyonce. Each involved a lot of waiting around, and they usually only sing one or two songs. But if you happen to work in midtown, you might as well stop by Friday mornings to check it out.
