Jaguar Skills
We did think the name referred to a workshop teaching people how to drive the luxury car at first. It actually refers to a Brit DJ famous for dressing up as a ninja during his performances.

Date and time: Feb 3, 9.30pm until late
Venue: Zirca Club, #01-02/03/04/05 Clarke Quay
Price: $16 before 9pm, $28 - $30 after 11pm.
