••• I had heard that Tiny’s was opening for lunch tomorrow (Friday), but then when I stopped by a little while ago, they said it’s friends-and-family till Monday, when it opens for lunch at 11:30 a.m.; dinner won’t be served until the beginning of May. They gave me a tour, by the way, and it’s very handsome in a rustic way.
••• Tribeca Film Festival has released info about getting into the opening-night screening The Union, Cameron Crowe’s documentary about the making of Elton John’s new record with Leon Russell, on Apr. 20: At 4 p.m. that day, wristbands will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis at the BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center (West Street entrance, just north of Chambers). Two wristbands per person. The screening will begin at 8:15 p.m., with programming beginning as early as 7:30 p.m., at the World Financial Center Plaza. After the screening, Elton John will perform.
••• The other day on Twitter, someone asked if Tribeca had any $1 pizza joints. We soon will: Something called Roll and Go is coming to Broadway and Franklin. Between this and Cheap Maggie’s, Broadway doesn’t appear to be gentrifying anytime soon.
••• From Manhattan Youth re: Pier 25’s beach volleyball courts: “If you’re interested in a seasonal court rental, email pier25@manhattanyouth.org for more information. We are currently only issuing seasonal rentals (April 25 through late October); for information regarding evening rentals, group parties, mini-golf, and school outings please check back in mid-May. Our Friday Nights Teen Volleyball League will begin in 2 1/2 weeks but please register now. For more information, go to manhattanyouth.org or contact Marshall Coleman at mc@marshalcoleman.com.”

••• From Plein Sud: “Come downtown and celebrate on Thursday, April 28, and enjoy complimentary aperitif and hors d’oevres prepared by executive chef Ed Cotton served from 5pm-8pm.”
