Look back, Don't Look Back, or get a view from above.

Aeroballoon: Balloon over Central Park
To celebrate the 150th anniversary of that big backyard, park visitors have a chance to get a rare view of Central Park and the city's bustling streets, or wait until evening and float above the city lights from 300 feet in the air in a helium-filled, safe, American-made, non-combustible balloon. Up to four passengers at a time can go for a 10 minute ride.
Through August 22; 7 AM - 10 PM
Cost: $25 adults; $17.50 children
Cherry Hill, Central Park at 72nd Street, west of Bethesda Fountain

Bob Dylan at Prospect Park Bandshell
Speaking of iconoclastic '70s things. Also '60s, '80s, '90s and right now. And probably ten years from now his shows will still be sold out before you can get tickets. But will there be craigslist?
