January is behind us but how about all of those New Year resolutions? Has the gym membership lapsed? Are you ready to hurl yourself off the wagon on the first of Feb? (Tonight?) And are you celebrating the end of «Veganuary» with a steak dinner? Personally i have enjoyed my dry January so much i’m going to continue into February and with so much delicious vegan food available Veganuary could easily turn into Veganuary, (that’s vegan February,) or even Vegamarch. (Is that right? Is it Veganmarch? Or Vegan-o-March?) Any hoo, there is plenty to do this week and i have even included a bonus tip that looks forward a few weeks so you lovely Ronsters don’t miss out on some great comedy. Have a great weekend and…

Give my love to the city

No, you're not seeing double. That's just the way the cookie crumbles this week! Man's World is coming back, there's a new pop-up, (not a restaurant!), a couple of ragers and even Karaoke (from hell...) A rising star from Austria is coming, the gig list is out and of course, i have a brand new comic to introduce to you.

Thursday: A new pop-up for fashion and design with an Asian feel
Thursday: Need to keep the BF busy? Man’s World opens its doors
Saturday: Birthday bash at Photobastei
Saturday: Club festival with KAUZ & Exil
Tuesday: Karaoke From Hell celebrates 20 years
Tuesday: Wunderkind Oskar Haag at X-TRA

L’Air du Temps (breathing my beloved in) by PRICE is a staged play performed frontally, celebrating the enduring beauty of an image. But something has weathered. Tickets and more info: gessnerallee.ch

I normally keep my tips to stuff that happens during the next seven days but in this case i am going to look a little further forward. British comedy superstar Jimmy Carr is going to be visiting Zurich for a sold out show but demand was so high that a second show has been added at Theatre Spirgarten. If you want to see him the second show is scheduled for Sunday 18th of Feb. Get your tickets now!

In February my newsletter will be minimalistic, at least in the Fumetto department. There the reduced pictures by the Spanish artist Gabri Molist will be the decorations. I spoke to him about his career, style and the things that bring him joy at the moment. This includes eating pasta. What can I say Gabri? Same ♥

As i started to write this list i imagined it would take ten mins, tops! Well, it turns out that there is a surprisingly large amount of stuff going on this month with rock, jazz, funk and a big side order of punk. If you’ve been doing dry January then it’s time to grab a beer, get you cigarette lighter in «wave» mode, put your mobile phone away, (see this article from the UK Guardian,) and get to a gig. Here goes…
