DINNER + LIVE BANDS: ANN BLU + LANCE PRIESTER & COEUR

Come by and enjoy a delicious meal, grab some drinks and enjoy the music of Ann Blu and Lance Priester & Coeur.

>>> CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR PLATE <<<

LANCE PRIESTER & COEUR
Enschede got to know Lance Priester though his performance last year at the Booster Festival where he did a stellar performance at Metropool. One year later we are looking forward to seeing a more evolved show with his band Coeur. Lance Priester grew up in France, studied in London for a few years and ended up in Tilburg looking for musicians with a similar intention. He has found it in his band Coeur, French for heart.

ANN BLU
She is a big fan of recycling, which is why Ann Blu’s music has strong references to the past. Her ‘intelligent pop’ holds elements of Steely Dan as well as Amy Winehouse and immerses listeners in a warm bath of guitar and keys grounded by a steady groove. Lyrics can be philosofical as well as ordinary while expressing daily routine from unexpected perspective.

DINNER + COMEDY NIGHT

Comedy is back baby with lots of new faces to bring an evening of laughter to all of you!

>>> CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR PLATE <<<

We’ve gathered all new comedians and we’re ready to bring the laughter!
So join us and our international clan of funny people 16 February for a night of guaranteed laughter!!

Interested? Respond to the event on Facebook and invite your friends!

Bronwyn:
Bronwyn Isaac is a New York stand-up comedian, writer, and podcaster who loves being professionally ridiculous. She can be seen on Showtime, Sundance TV, and MTV. You can read her published comedy and pop culture reporting in Vice, Paper Mag, Bustle, Reductress, Someecards, and Alternet. Or you can find her haunting your local cemetery.

Karan:
Karan is an Indian who’s a psychologist, polyamorous and a life coach. If that doesn’t scream out wannabe sex guru we don’t know what else does. He still posesses the stereotypical qualities of your regular indian guy: he’s an engineer, likes spicy food, wears flip flops and also worked in a call center before. So you may ask why he‘s here today? To get more followers for his cult! Because when you work with people for more than 10 years, there is so much content you‘d be stupid not to fiddle around a hobby as a stand up comedian with it! Therefore he’s not really a funny guy, he just finds things funny and is hoping to be laughed at more than laughed with.

Kendra:
Born into a Reagan-era hunter-gatherer society in Alaska, Kendra started playing saxophone at age 8 inspired by the musical stylings of Lisa Simpson. After surviving the treacherous journey down the infamous Alaskan-Canadian hi-way in 1999 to study music in Oregon, she finally left the US once and for all in 2004.In search of a better life (and an affordable Master’s degree) she bought a one-way ticket to Amsterdam never to look back. Since it turns out you cannot pay rent in exposure and beer tokens she started guiding people around the city in 2010, and now performs comedy by night.

OPENING OF THE SPRING SEASON! – IRANIAN NIGHT

Join us for a new season, beginning with Iranian night at Tankstation. Including an art opening from Sjahrzad Khodadadeh and music by Oh Whale, DJ Anvari and DJ Aramazd!

For those who might not follow the news completely; in Iran, protests have been going on for months, in reaction to the murder, caused by the Iranian morality police, of the Kurdish-Iranian Jina (Masha) Amini. The Iranian government reacts violently against these protests and has so far caused the deaths of more than 500 people.

Tankstation and its community want to bring attention to this and create a safe space for people to come together.

Program
17:00: Doors open + Exhibition Opening of Sjahrzad Khodadadeh
17:45: Performance of Sjahrzad Khodadadeh
18:00: Dinner (fully booked, sorry)
19:30: Opening Speech
20:00: Open Mic (focused on Iran)
21:00: Live Music (Oh Whale)
22:00: Dj Anvari

Entrance: FREE
Dinner: €12 (3 course, Persian family recipes dinner)

Sjahrzad Khodadadeh
Being an only child born in the Netherlands to an Iranian family caused a struggle with identity. She was raised with stories about the Persian culture, the time they were free and could celebrate life. She utilises these stories with her in her work, which consists of etchings (a technique where cuts are made in copper or zinc plates, which are then printed on paper). For Sjahrzad, this way of working feels like a ritual, and that feeling she takes with her in her performances will also be shown during this opening.

The exhibition will be on display the whole month, with a closing event on the 7th of march, the evening before International Women’s Day.

>>> CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR PLATE <<<

Do these faces look familiair? Romperayo’s drummer Pedro Ojeda and bass player Mario already were on stage with their other band Los Pirañas in june 2022. While visiting Europe again for the LeGuessWho festival they return with Romperayo, slightly less noisy, a bit more Cumbia and again pleasantly insane. Their psychedelic but oh so danceable sound balances on the interface of musical madness and genius.

Romperayo stems from the new Colombian music scene that reinterprets their own musical roots in a fascinating way. The basis are the traditional rhythms, but they are wrapped in a contemporary jacket of electronica and seventies psychedelia.

HEAL ROYALE, how do we heal in the time of digitalisation? In a world of multiple and global crises, overload of input and information, screen fatigue and fear of missing out, can we really find space for healing within digital worlds? How can virtual experiences engage with more of our senses, taking account of our physicality, our fragile bodies and our emotional states?

In this symposium we will get inspired by the pleasure of eating and the multiple sensations food can give us to rethink our relation to the digital. We are using dinner rituals to help us discover new ways to behave with our screens and within a digitised reality.

Every alternating Thursday bring your instruments, jump on stage, and jam along with your Tankstation family!

Hosted in collaboration with Pavilion, the people that bring you TuinJam and TankJam!

Plus don’t forget to check out our famous Give & Take store, stop by at our craft table, and smile & say hello to our wonderful volunteers who make all of it possible!

Next Thursday, the Indian Southern state of Kerala celebrates Onam, a Harvest festival of the good triumphing over evil. We’re exploring this tradition with our amazing chef Kashyap, who is preparing his interpretation of “Onam Sadya,” the dishes traditionally served during this celebration.

CHEF: Kashyap

MENU:
Banana chips (V)
Pappadum (V)
Lemon pickle (V)
Cabbage Thoran (V)
Kootu curry (V)
Erissery (V)
Ellu curry (V)
Rice (V)
Avial
Beetroot Pachadi
Kurukku Kalan
Parippu Pradhaman

All dishes marked (V) are vegan.

Due to the number of dishes it is not possible to make a vegan version of the non-vegan dishes. This is also to preserve the authenticity of the dishes. We hope you understand.
