Did you hear the results of the referendum? Two things stand out. Firstly, those pesky petrol leaf blowers (which truly suck) are about to be consigned to the annals of history. And secondly, the city voted a resounding Ja for a VBZ-Abo for 365 francs. That’s right – we’ll be able to ride the city’s public transport for just a franc a day!

October has arrived, bringing with it a new comic contributor and a refreshed gig list, this time with a difference. Speaking of gigs, the ads in the newsletter feature some concert tickets for sale, and in the forum a fellow Ronster is asking for advice. Can you help him? I’m sure you can.

Have a great weekend and…

Good Morning

Did you hear the results of the referendum? Two things stand out. Firstly, those pesky petrol leaf blowers (which truly suck) are about to be consigned to the annals of history. And secondly, the city voted a resounding Ja for a VBZ-Abo for 365 francs. That’s right – we’ll be able to ride the city’s public transport for just a franc a day!

How long can you dance for? An hour? Two hours? Whatever your record is, it may be put to the test this weekend at Frieda’s Büxe. As part of their 15th birthday celebrations, they are partying from Sunday straight through until Monday at 6 a.m. The line-up features an impressive roster of international DJs. And if you’re still going strong when the sun comes up on Monday morning, don’t worry, I won’t tell if you call in sick.

Sat 11pm - Mon 6am, Frieda’s Büxe, Friedaustrasse 23, 8003

Although not officially part of the ZFF (at least as far as I can tell), the TonhalleLATE series is joining in with a concert entitled Cinema in Concert. The program features music from films such as The Revenant and Planet of the Apes, along with Wendy Carlos’ haunting score for The Shining. After the concert, the evening shifts gears with a live set combining DJ beats and live instruments, featuring Freedom Fighters, and keeps the energy going until 2 a.m. with more tunes pumping through the sound system.

Friday 10pm, TonhalleLATE, Claridenstrasse 7, 8002

This month’s gig list is a pretty epic affair. I lost count of the gigs at around the sixty mark, and I think there are over eighty shows in town this month. Whatever your musical style, from rap to punk or metal to jazz, there is something for you to check out. I appreciate that a giant list of eighty-odd gigs can be a bit hard to digest, so I’ve arranged them by week, from Thursday to Wednesday. Saves a bit of pain for the scrolling finger!

p.s. I apologise for the weeks not being in order. For some reason they keep getting jumbled up and i gave up in the end.

As a child, Line Rime wanted to become a writer, singer, actress or comic artist. For a particular reason, she eventually chose the latter. Her career aspirations took her from Fribourg, where she grew up, to Lucerne, where she studied, and later to Paris, where she spent two residencies. In an interview, she told me what she most enjoys drawing – and much more besides.
