Z.U.P (Concert)Záhony Unplugged Project (Z.U.P.) are an unusual 6-piece band who play only acoustic instruments. Their repertoire offers a mixture of cover versions of well-known and obscure indie and rock tracks, along with some of their own compositions in both English and Hungarian. An accomplished collection of musicians and singers, they produce an entertaining show, well worth a visit. Take a listen on MySpace here. Support comes from wannabe prog-rockers Betterfly and Muzak Box, about whom we can find very little information.

Also worth a gander...
Random Chords (Concert)
Filter Club, [map]. 20:00, free
Rocky punk from Random Chords won't cost you a forint. They adore filth and passion in a world which gravitates towards isolation and sterility, apparently.
Star Jam Session (Concert)
Jam Pub, 21:00
It's the middle of the week, you're shopping at Mammut and what do you feel? The urge to listen to a random collection of musicians jamming soul and funk music? You're in luck cause Jam Pub is right under your nose. Details here.
Vodku V Glotku (Concert)
Pótkulcs 21:00, free
Folk music; folk rock; but not like Steeleye Span. Check them out here.
