Pub Quiz
Free
Dolly, Hafnastræti 4 | Every Tuesday 21:00
There are the essential ingredients to a pub quiz:
a team with a hilarious name, copious amounts of
alcohol, and having no shame in hurling abuse at
other teams when you catch them cheating by finding
the answers on their phones which they’re trying
to keep hidden under the table. A pub quiz always
provides fascinating insights in to individual players.
You may find out that your ultra-macho sports nut
friend does indeed know how many weeks pregnant
Kim Kardashian is. Likewise it may be that your
ultra-prim girlfriend can answer straight away in what
round Tyson took a chunk out of Holyfield’s ear. So
check one out. You may find out things about your
team mates that you’d never ever think possible. JL

ADMISSION FREE
Pétur Ben
Free entrance, offer on Heineken
Slipbarinn, Hotel Marina 22 :00
How does Pétur Ben stay so cool? Have you heard
his new album, full of his consistently well-crafted
rock tunes? Have you seen that gorgeous swath of
red hair floating in the abyss on the record cover?
Did you know that he wrote the scores for two
recent movies, ‘Parents’ and ‘Children’? How can
you pass up a chance to see this guy for free!? What
about cheap beer, is there anything uncool about
that? Have you been to Slipbarinn and basked in its
bastion of cozy classiness? Could this concert series
be any nicer, really? RL

Music and Creative Movement for Children
19.800 ISK
Kramhúsið theater and dance centre. 14:00
In a world where young children are becoming so
sedate that even the idea of physical exercise tires
them out then this new course is definitely an energetic
winner. The program includes singing, creative moving
and development of basic concepts like rhythm,
perception, and memory. The goal for each lesson is to
nurture creativity by listening for children's ideas, giving
them opportunity for choice, letting them lead and
provide a rich musical environment in which they may
learn. JL
