21/03/10

It's World Poetry Day today and we literary types here at the Hub are of course partaking in UNESCO's promotion of reading, writing, teaching and publishing poetry. So, let Petofi Sandor's poem "Rise Up Magyar" infamous words ring out...
"It's the sword that one's arm betters, Yet we wear grim chains and shackles. Sabers outshine the chains and fetters, Swords, slash though the damned manacles! God of Hungarians, we swear unto Thee, We swear unto Thee - that slaves we should no longer be!"
Note: Manacles - just another word for handcuffs. If nothing else World Poetry Days has added manacles to your daily vernacular.

Also worth a gander...



M.A.C.(Concert)

Szabad Az Á [map] 21:00, Free

Marci, Anthony, and Connor appear to be a regular cover band a Szabad covering RHCP, U2, Pink Floyd and whatnot. This band has been described by my personal favourite reviewer (google translate) as an action packed band who play rock music, chill-out specific riffs, powerful refrénekkel and funky grúvokkal.

Memories Garden (Concert)
Old Man's Music Pub, 20:00, Free

Memories Garden has had an bit of turnover since their formation in 1993 but they stay true to their grunge roots. A bit too much of Eddie Vedder with a little jazz mixed in.



Gloomy Sunday Klub (Party)

WineBar,[map] Free
Darvas Ferenc and Oravecz Maria are at the WineBar every Sunday night and well, it sounds like it might be aptly named if you try to find their music online these two. That being said they are there every night so gold star for them!
