Reykjavík Grapevine - júl. 2020, Blaðsíða 19
Bjarki #ór Gu!mundsson
Bjarki !ór Gu"mundsson is the
owner of the Shave Cave in Skeifan,
which just opened on July 15th. He
is also a super goth, DJ and host
of Reykjavík Goth Night, which re-
turns to Gaukurinn on July 25th with
the Plague Edition. Here, he regales
us with his vision of a perfect day,
which involves giving good haircuts
and keeping the dance floor happy.
Morning
I'm a type-B person, so I would love
to sleep in, even for just a little bit—
let’s say 10:00-10:30, something like
that. I would have some nice break-
fast with my five-year-old daugh-
ter, Aríana, and my girlfriend, Hafey,
when we wake up.
After breakfast, we would all
watch a little bit of TV while cuddling
on the couch. Then we would go have
lunch at Mosfellsbakari. I would get
the lovely veggie sub with mustard
sauce and sparkling water.
Afternoon
I would take my daughter swimming
at her favourite swimming pool,
Kópavogslaug. After, I would drop
Aríana at her mom’s place as I head
to work for a few hours at my brand
new barber shop, Shave Cave, which
my friend and coworker Edda and I
run together on Grensásvegur 22. I
would give a few of my friends good
haircuts and beard trims.
My girlfriend and I would go to
my favourite restaurant, Matarkjal-
larinn: The Food Cellar for dinner. I
would get the pepper steak, medium
rare of course, ending with my fa-
vourite dessert, their Lion Bar.
Night
A"er dinner, we would head to Gau-
kurinn, where I would be hosting my
club night, Reykjavík Goth Night, with
one of my all time favourite bands
Psyclon Nine, the legendary Skinny
Puppy, and of course, our very own
Hatari playing, and then I would keep
the dance floor happy with my DJ-ing
until closing time.
Then the bands, the crew, some
friends and I would go to some nice
a"er party, until it's time for the per-
fect day to end.
Perfect Day
Dance, jive & have the time of your life
