Is 23rd June as important for you as it is for these guys? No, of course it isn't. Unless it's your birthday (which it isn't.) Why not jazz up an otherwise nothingy day with...

Astoria (M2), 1 min
Armenian accordion player, David Yengibarjan, gets on rather well with Hungarian jazz musicians. Tonight he joins pianist Pleszkán Frigyes, who appears in a fuzzy video here. Alternatively, if Hungarian folk music is more your thing, don't hang your blob: the Buda Folk Band are also on the bill.

Or how about...?
JazzGödör Extra (Concert)
Gödör, 20:00, free
Some of the more industrious jazz performers in Budapest, the Dresch Quartet, chill out in the ditch along with Triton who bring their saxy jazz along (and who have a website that doesn't really work!) Gnawa trio, an amalgam of Grencsó István, Andras Halmos and Said Tichita from Chalaban promises to be an interesting fusion.
Rekontra (Concert)
Pótkulcs 21:00, free
Breathing more life into traditional Hungarian folk music than you might think possible on a Tuesday night. The cimbalom is king! Listen here.
Milk (Film)
Művész [map], 21:30
What? You've got a problem with gay people? Well, Harvey Milk was gay! The first openly gay US politician, that is. Gus Van Sant's warm, evocative docu-drama captures the spirit of a man on a personal and political mission, and won two Oscars for its efforts. If you still haven't seen it, now's your chance to see James Franco's killer mustache. Rave reviews here.
