00:00 Hello I'm Kevin Quinn from the Edinburgh Evening News. Here's a look at five

00:04 things to do in Edinburgh next week from January the 15th. On Tuesday night the

00:09 classic rock show will be rocking out at the Usher Hall, performed with note for

00:13 note precision bringing the original iconic and era-defining recordings back

00:17 to life on stage with an amazing sound and light show to match. Tickets are

00:23 still available from the Usher Hall box office from £33. Enjoy a night of

00:29 sonic experimentation on Thursday at White Space East Cross Causeway curated

00:35 by Wavetable, an inclusive community of audio and visual artists from Edinburgh

00:39 and beyond. Tickets are available for that online from £8.83. And celebrate the

00:46 Bard at the British Sign Language Burns event on Friday at the Gilly Dew from 6

00:52 p.m. Enjoy Burns recitals throughout the evening, a four-course meal and a kelly.

00:57 The event costs from £65. And a documentary film about life under

01:04 occupation in Gaza will be shown at Portobello Town Hall on Friday from 7

01:09 p.m. to 9 p.m. Freedom to Run follows two groups of runners, one

01:15 from Right to Movement in Palestine and one from Scotland. The two groups of

01:19 runners support each other as they run both the Palestine and

01:23 Edinburgh marathons and on this journey the runners discover they are not so

01:27 different but they live very different lives. Donations of £7, £10 or

01:32 £15 are recommended. There will also be a Q&A with the filmmakers after the

01:38 screening. And finally there will be a British Eventing Scotland masterclass at

01:44 the Scottish National Equestrian Centre on Saturday 6.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m.

01:49 where world number one Rose Cantor will provide an insight into her training

01:54 techniques which make her so successful. Tickets from £40 are still

01:59 available online.
