"In a tiny piece of colored glass my love was born; And reds and golds and yellows were the colours in the dawn; Night brought on its purple cloak of velvet to the sky; And the girls were wheeling, spinning on Jersey Thursday." Come on, there's a music festival on. You can go as hippy as you like.

Sziget Festival - Rokia Traoré and others (Concert)
The Kaiser Chiefs are probably quite enjoyable for a bit; even if they couldn't write a middle eight to save their lives. (Listen to "Ruby" and tell me you couldn't write better.) So, maybe Rokia Traoré is a better bet over on the World Music stage. Traditional Malian instruments that don't usually accompany each other agree to work together with Rokia's soft but versatile voice. Listen here.
Jamiroquai plays later, and let's be fair to him, he's got one idea that he repeats over and over again until you wish you had something to throw at him.

Sacreo Flamenco (Concert)
Pótkulcs [map], 14th August, 21:00
Break out the frilly skirts and the castanets; it's Flamenco time, if you can find it.
Tettamanti Téma
Tuzrakter, (behind the yellow church on Kiraly), 14th August, 21:00
There's a jazz groove thang in the kert that'll have you and your beer chillin' like a big old trombone.
Goulasch Exotica (DJs)
A38 Roof Terrace, 14th August, 21:00, 500Ft
Folk, Electronica and World Music cooked up in a stew. That 500Ft entry fee doubles up as a drinks voucher too.
