Spice Up Your Life With 'Kanil'
May 18, 23:00
Faktorý
1000 ISK
You should most definitely move your ass to Faktorý on May 18., because DJ Laura
Jones will be hitting the turntables as a special guest of the infamous Kanill DJ
ensemble. After releasing the single ‘Love in Me’, Jones has become one of the
most sought after DJs in Europe in a matter of months, performing in several of the
top-notch electronic Venues in the UK. DJ Gavin Herlihy, another young musician
hailing from the UK, will also perform, along with select members of the Kanill crew.
Mugison Makes Mugimusic
May 18 and 19
Hvítahúsið (Selfoss) and NASA
2000 ISK
Musician Örn Elías Guðmundsson, better known as Mugison, will play two back-to-back concerts this month. He says he is
on his way west for the summer and wants to have a little city-fun before he goes. On May 18, Mugison and friends will play
Hvítahúsið in Selfoss to make up for the fact that, “Selfoss got cheated when we took the ring [around Iceland].” The day after,
the band will make their way to NASA in downtown Reykjavík. Mugisson will be his own opening act, playing his instrument
called the Mirstumentið. Tickets go on sale on May 10 at 15:00. Don’t miss this chance to get your moogie-boogie on!
Rokk Í Reykjavík -
Version 2.0
May 24, 20:00
Gaukurinn
Guests will be asked to donate 1000
ISK to ‘Save Ice Bank’ to produce a
DVD/CD of this event
In 1982, Friðrik Þór Friðriksson set out
to document the punk and new-wave
scene in Reykjavík. The resulting docu-
mentary and its accompanying double
album of the same name became
instant classics and are mandatory
study material for any lover of Icelandic
music. At Gaukurinn on Thursday, May
24, Belgian Doctor William Van Hooste
is holding a celebration of both his
birthday and the thirtieth anniversary of
‘Rokk í Reykjavík’. The tribute concert
will feature bands from the original
movie like Fræbbblarnir and Q4U as
well modern rock bands like Sudden
Weather Change, Æla, and Morðing-
jarnir paying tribute to the soundtrack
that helped define Reykjavík as the
centre of cool. More information and a
complete set list is available at
http://rockinreykjavik.blogspot.com
This event will be filmed so dust off
that leather jacket and Rokk in
Reykjavík!
