I was thinking the same thing. There is just a TON of free music available in Rochester NY. People don't realize how much there is compared to other cities. You should take advantage of it.

They have many free events, and others are dirt cheap for students. Irony of many of the free ones is that, because they are free, people seem to assume they aren't any good, so you can often park right next to the concert hall at the last moment, and get a primo seat for fantastic music. I saw John Adams, Trevor Pinnock, and a number of other folks for free, whereas normally you would be paying at least $45 in major venues. And Dinosaur BBQ often has great music (most often blues and jazz) for free. Don’t forget the Eastman School of Music! They have many free events, and others are dirt cheap for students.

It is a huge rose garden with over 1000 types of roses and if you want to walk a bit there is an awesome path down to a view with waterfalls.

The Little Theater is perfect if you want to see great indi films, the ones the major theaters ignore!
