Blues Café

Budavári Művelődési Ház, 10th January, 17:30, 1000Ft
Bem rakpart 6. [Map]

His bold head only means keeping excellent company to another hairless Hungarian bluesman - Ferenczi György. Both of them will chat, tell stories and of course jam together, so if you don't burst out laughing at the right moment along with the Hungarian audience you can at least listen to good quality blues.

See here for more details.
