The TABAC party people are launching a new daily podcast pop-up radio thing and Picnic Magazine is a new mag that’s launching with an exhibition at Beit Hair on Bialik Square. This Thursday (30/21/10) from 7:00PM-11:00PM (sharp, so get there...
It’s not every day you get to hear good, old-fashioned rockabilly stylings in Tel Aviv. Well, tonight you can hear Hank Bobbit, described as “accoustic dyke-a-billy” from Berlin. So if you like rockabilly and want to hear a very tight...
Two parties in Tel Aviv tonight… Firstly, hipsters, take heed! The Prozdor bar (formerly in my guide and formerly in a different location) has reopened and they are having their official opening party tonight at the new location at Herzl...
There is a benefit gig tonight at the Comfort 13, organised by Kol haCampus (Israel’s student radio station), plus a few very cool big name local alternative acts. This is to raise funds for Yemin Orde Youth Village that got...
The annual art sale, Bread and Roses, is a group exhibition where you can buy original art by prominent Israeli and Palestinian artists. Proceeds go to empowering and giving work training to Israeli Arab (Palestinian) women. It takes place tomorrow...
The Open House for Indian Culture in Florentin will be having a posh Indian meal and party on NYE. Quite a few amazing-sounding dishes (veggie or not) to choose from. There will also be free hot punch and Bollywood music...
An evening combining chip music and a political statement about the Gaza flotilla can be either your idea of a good and unusual night out or hell. Personally, I think it’s great. Basically, a bunch of chip music artists from...
This one will make you happy. If you were beginning to think this blog’s contribution to your NYE planning in Tel Aviv was going to be all about dressing up in 20s outfits, think again. This one’s got a real...
Tomorrow night the excellent Poingi (who usually lives in Berlin) will be playing italo at Laika. Poingi’s great and he’s a friend so I’ll most likely go there to check him out, if I can stop sneezing for 5 whole...
This party was last year (2011). You want the 2012 NYE party post which lives here. Seeing as I’m getting a lot of messages about a lot of NYE parties in Tel Aviv, I thought I’d start a new category...
Another post coming to you from my sick bed (or rather, sick sofa) as I am slowly recovering from the flu. My extensive web surfing in my hour of need has taught me about this really cool event that happens...
What the fuck is it about this bike that seems to constantly draw trouble? I mean, you could say it’s me but I have other things and they don’t seem to always be breaking or getting me into trouble with...
Tomorrow at the Sniff Club, local crew, Infuse will be dishing out the tunes. Pure drum and bass, for those of you who may be tired of Dubstep, even if only for the night. DJs: – EWOK – SCRUFF –...
If you’re into dub, reggae and ska, you can catch Los Caparos tonight at the Comfort 13 with support act Reggaestan. Doors are at 9:30, show at 10:30. Tickets are 50NIS in advance and 60NIS on the door. You can...
It’s definitely the week for unusual things around town. I just found out about a place called “The Open house for Indian Culture” in Florentin (Vital 2, first floor) and they seem to have an Odissi (classical Indian dance) recital...
HaTeiva in Yafo (see full guide for details) is having its annual 4 day marathon of experimental contemporary (classical, but modern) music and dance starting tomorrow. If you’re into that sort of thing (and you may have even come here...
If you’re in Tel Aviv right now – Oh my god! I’m glad I didn’t get blown away by the storm. I foolishly thought I could go to lunch at a cafe today and only made it 200 metres before...
There’s a lot of talk in Israel about the difference between refugees and migrants. Some apologists for the government’s revolting treatment of refugees and foreign workers claim that most African nationals who come to Israel and claim to be refugees...
Today was my first march / demo in Tel Aviv in some time. We marched for human rights, a rather loaded topic nowadays. The demos in Tel Aviv are always pretty tame. If you compare them to the stuff I...
Tonight’s Felix da House Cat gig at Haoman 17 is CANCELLED. The cat is apparently down with the flu and can’t make it. Supposedly he is genuinely ill with the flu and will come and play on some other unspecified...
