Back in the old days / Nomeansno
Nomeansno are brothers Rob and John Wright who mix punk rock, punk jazz, and math rock. Critically acclaimed for their instrumental skills and for their single “Dad” off of Sex Mad, Nomeansno continues to put on a great live show. Their 15-minute cover of Miles Davis’s “Bitches Brew” highlights the ingenuity of the band while showing off their jazz influences. Also known for their black humor, Nomeansno is worth a look.
Time: 21:00h

Clubbing / Jamie xx @ Nitsa
Not merely content with being the production powerhouse behind cult indie-dance act The xx, Jamie ‘xx’ Smith has forged himself a musical identity on his own. As a remixer, he has retooled Gil Scott Heron’s latest album with
much aplomb and his Midas remix touch has graced artists like Adele and Glasser. His recent track “Far Nearer” is a steel drum and submerged-vocal-blessed opus that proves he can cut it solo. Behind the decks, he mixes everything from disco to post-dubstep and everything in between, slicing and splicing vocals with perfect accuracy.

About ten years ago, the famous transvestite nightclub the Bodega Bohemia in Raval closed its doors. Back then, Dutch director Sonia Herman Dolz considered this moment important enough to make a documentary. This play is loosely based on said documentary and has been a huge success at the 2010 Avignon Festival. The cast is made up of old stars of the cross-dressing variety. The play is highly influenced by the actors, who themselves cross the bridge between male and female identity on a daily basis.

How many BCNeta vehicle varieties are there? One for normal dirt, one for large pieces of trash, one for bio, one for graffiti, one for tiny streets, one for long and winding streets, one for cleaning the bins themselves, one for… The city has come a long way. People still throw their old washing machines into bio-waste containers, but all in all, Barna has a pretty neat cleaning squad and does its best to motivate us, its citizens, to heart our punts verds and new olipots. There’s much to be thankful for. This little lecture will teach you just how filthy Barna life was a hundred years ago.

THEATER / EL IGNORANTE Y EL DEMENTE // UNTIL 24.04
Sala Muntaner presents “El ignorante y el demente“ by Thomas Bernhard, an Austrian playwright who, despite his great importance in German-speaking cultures, hasn’t attracted much attention in Spain – yet. Directed by Joaquin Candeias, the play reflects on the father-child relationship. With ironic soliloquies, vivid dialogues and striking performances, it’s an excellent example of absurd drama and comedy.
Time: 20:45h
Place: Sala Muntaner@ Muntaner, 4
Admission: 16€
