This weekend seems to be a strong mix of intellectual stimulation coupled with a healthy dose of partying. First off, you probably know already, but the JZ Music Festival will run this entire weekend. After Dee Dee Bridgewater rocks it at Yunfeng Theater tonight, the festival will bring together a host of different artists and bands for a huge gathering in Century Park on Saturday and Sunday. Besides that, there will also be a multitude of speakers coming to Shanghai (to discuss controversial theories about China's past and what its future will look like), and we'll celebrate the birthdays of one of our favorite bar spots (Cotton's!), one of Shanghai's funnest DJ groups (Uprooted Sunshine!) and the start of a Shanghai chapter for one of our favorite charitable initiatives during college (Habitat for Humanity!).

Holy crazy week, Batman. Shanghai is teeming to the brim with talks and forums, tweetups and meetups, and some awesome music peppered throughout these next few days. To see what didn't make this week's Pencil This In (oh yes, there's more), check out the Shanghaiist calendar. If anyone so much as thinks the words, "I have nothing to do tonight," may an angry Haibao come down and smite you.
