Why You Should've Been in Brno Last Night
Last night I saw a Czechgrass concert (i.e., Czech bluegrass). The concert was at the "Šelepova No. 1" club (address: Šelepova 1; if you were wondering). It's good stuff, and it was great to go to a different sort of concert for change. I did, though, miss the wine usually in abundance at folklore gatherings. The first group was called Sakra, Pes! (which, if you translate it means something like "Damn, Dog!" or maybe "Damn dog"). They were joined by Robert Křesťan (of Druhá tráva [website])for one number. And I was there, too, taking self-portraits in the back.

A graduate student in music and anthropology writing a dissertation about music in Moravia, the eastern third of the Czech Republic. At some point, the Czech Republic's "second city" (that would be Brno) captured my attention, and I've since been blogging about events, arts, music, and other stuff—basically whatever interests me in and around the cityscape. I'm not living in Brno now, but I keep up with the cultural pulse from afar as best I can.
