Karaoke Chaos & Korean BBQ Night @Duke of Tokyo & Daebak Utrecht 🎤🔥
Karaoke Chaos & Korean BBQ Night @Duke of Tokyo & Daebak Utrecht 🎤🔥
Get ready for a night of questionable singing, sizzling grills, and unforgettable chaos in the heart of Utrecht! We’ll kick off the evening at [Duke of Tokyo Utrecht](https://dukeoftokyo.com/en), one of the city’s most iconic karaoke spots. Hidden beneath the streets of Utrecht in a neon-lit Tokyo-inspired wonderland, this place is all about private karaoke rooms, over-the-top vibes, cocktails, and singing your heart out with friends. After warming up our vocal cords (and possibly damaging them forever), we’ll take a short walk to [Daebak Korean BBQ](https://daebakbbq.nl/) for an interactive Korean BBQ dinner experience. Expect tabletop grills, endless sizzling meat, delicious banchan, and the kind of food coma that only Korean BBQ can deliver. **🕒 Schedule** * **17:30 – 19:30** → Karaoke at Duke of Tokyo * **20:00 – 22:00** → Korean BBQ dinner at Daebak The two venues are within walking distance from each other. **💰 Costs** **Karaoke Only** * Karaoke at Duke of Tokyo: **€18** **Korean BBQ Only** * Korean BBQ dinner at Daebak: **€42** **Full Evening** * Karaoke + Korean BBQ: **€60** *Drinks are not included.* **⚠️ Important Information** * You are welcome to join **only the karaoke**, **only the dinner**, or **both activities**. * RSVP means commitment to attend. * Everyone pays for themselves. * Please arrive on time so we can enter the karaoke rooms together. * Bring your best (or worst) song choices. * No singing talent required — enthusiasm is far more important. Expect a night full of laughter, dramatic performances, K-pop singalongs, nostalgic 2000s hits, smoky BBQ grills, and probably at least one accidental duet.

Linux Repair Café Utrecht
Linux Repair Café Utrecht
Give your still good laptop a second life instead of ditching it because Windows 11 says it is no good... Or you heard Linux is cool. If you have a backup of your data, that is great, else indicate that you do not, so we can help you. Do so in an extra message or to m10@m10tech.nl, else I don't receive your information. Geef je laptop die het nog prima doet een tweede kans in plaats van hem af te schrijven omdat Window 11 dat zegt... Of omdat je hoorde dat Linux gaaf is. Als je al een backup van je data hebt gemaakt is dat perfect. Of verwacht je dat wij dat doen? In dat geval graag aangeven hoe vol je harde schijf nu is... Doe dat in een extra bericht of aan m10@m10tech.nl, want de info komt anders niet door.

We contract our posture, match the pace of our screens, and let the brain dominate everything. Yes, Amsterdam is exceptionally hot right now ☀️. Your adult brain might be telling you to stay indoors, glued to the AC and a screen. But remember when you were a kid? Heat never stopped us. We ran into the wild, chased the wind, and embraced the sweat because playing was all that mattered. **Cloud Causality** invites you to step out of the stifling indoor air and dive into the natural, shady canopy of Amsterdam's beautiful Gaasperpark.

🌿 Creative Circle Summer Potluck Picnic 🌿
Let’s gather in the sunshine for a relaxed afternoon of connection, good food, and creative conversation at Wilhelminapark! After our first workshop, this picnic is a chance to get to know each other more personally, reflect on our experience together, and enjoy a meaningful summer moment as a community. We’ll share stories, ideas, food, and inspiration in a beautiful outdoor setting. I’ll bring a whiteboard where everyone can share ideas for future community gatherings, creative meetups, and ways to stay connected between workshops. It will also be a fun way to get to know each other better, discover shared interests, and help shape the community together. I’ll bring a few simple games and conversation prompts to keep the creative energy flowing. ✨ What to bring: • Your favorite dish or snack to share • Your own drink (and something extra to share if you’d like) • A blanket or something comfortable to sit on • An open mind and your creative ideas ☀️ Looking ahead: Our next official Creative Circle workshop will most likely take place after the summer. In the meantime, this picnic is a wonderful opportunity to stay connected, get to know each other better, and explore ideas for informal gatherings and community activities between workshops. Whether you joined our first workshop or are simply curious about future events, you’re very welcome to come along. No agenda, no pressure, just a lovely opportunity to connect, relax, and enjoy a summer afternoon with fellow creatives, curious minds, and kind humans. 💛 This community is something we’re creating together, and everyone’s voice matters. 🌦️ Weather note: Dutch weather can be unpredictable!

Stalker
Stalker
Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for July is "Shoes" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**! The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!
