Talking Pints: Labor Day Lollapalooza

What are your plans for the holiday? Are you planning on getting to the outer reaches for either Strawberry or Midi music festivals? Or are you gonna keep it traditional and hang out on a rooftop or terrace somewhere sucking back on cocktails?

First thing first – how are you spending your "fake Friday?" You could get the ball rolling well and truly tonight at the Carrefour Spring Wine Fair down in Shuangjing. Beijing Boyce has some thoughts on the fair and recommends folks to BYOG.

Someone forgot to tell the boys over at Migas that tomorrow is technically a work day. They're pushing ahead with their regular Los Residentes night over in Sanlitun. Elsewhere, Chill Bar open up their yard tonight and are offering free pizza. And Centro will hold their regular Let The Beat Drop night over at Kerry Hotel, too.

Saturday sees Irish comedian Des Bishop at The Bookworm, while Vics has it's own brand of comedy courtesy of a Modern Dance Competition.

On Sunday, Haze and it's regular spinners will host a Sichaun Earthquake Charity party. Click here for more details on that.

Have you had the chance to check out The Bookworm Quiz, or the Paddy's Open-Mic Night on Monday's yet? "No work Tuesday" represents your best chance for a while. And DJ Phonk D'Or presides over a Queen's Day Party at GT Banana, while Haze has a Stoplight Party.

Whatever you get up to, enjoy your days off.
