We Have Band
What a lovely way to start the week with the day of love: Valentine’s Day and a very special party for that occasion. Of course the city is being dominated with all the events of Berlinale. But honestly, I couldn’t be arsed going any deeper into this. Just like Fashion Week it is just too much and for some reason I prefer to let this mega event pass me by. For all the other sweet little events look after the jump!
Monday
It’s Valentine’s day and that is for sure the best occasion for a love affair of a special kind: Cinéma and iHeartBerlin are getting together to rock the HBC Kino tonight with fun pop, rnb and hip hop music. Come around, there will be lovely surprises for you…

This Thursday is the kick-off of the Jägermeister Wirtshaus Tour with a concert of We Have Band and Yuksek at the Jägerklause at Grünberger Str. 1 in Friedrichshain. Coincedently this old pub is right around the corner from my first appartment here in Berlin that I moved into 10 years ago. I always wondered if there is ever anything going on in there. Now there definately is and it’s kind of intriguing to have a party in an unusual place like that. You can still win tickets for the party until Tuesday over here and on Facebook.
