Cruelty Free Xmas
Remember that dark place on the corner that
you got your nose crushed in at last weekend
trying to mosh at 21:00 because their happy
hour was raging and someone put metal
music on? Well, just like the metal heads and
rocker types that hang out there, Gaukurinn
has a soft spot too. Come by their vegan food
and Christmas market this Sunday.

Pascal Pinon Concert
21:00 | Mengi | Admission: 2.000 ISK
If you’ve ever wondered what the power
of two actually means in Iceland, then
Pascal Pinon is the band you need to see.
The truly talented twosome Ásthildur and
Jófríður Ákadóttir have a heart-catching
sound that’s been described as “part sad
dream, part tender magic.” The duo are
set to perform music from their previous
albums, ‘Pascal Pinon’, ‘Twosomeness’,
and their latest release, ‘Sundur.’
ScHoolboy Q
21:00 | Valshöllin | Admission: 8.990-14.990 ISK
“Beggars can't be choosers,
bitch this ain't Chipotle,
N**** with an attitude,
I feel like O'Shea
Walkin', livin' legend,
man I feel like Kobe
I just left the strip club,
got some glitter on me
Wifey gonna kill me,
she the female OJ”
If this seems like something you relate to,
then make an appearance at Valshöllin on
December 17th.
