In 1992, it was on this day that Princess Diana and Prince Charles finally announced their separation. Charles had been spotted in various night clubs around Budapest for the past year and Diana finally threw him out after all this drunken debauchery. Let the tradition of drunken debauchery in Budapest continue at one of these fine affairs...

Quiz Night!
Manga Cowboy, 9th December, 20:00, 500 ft
1092 Budapest, Ráday utca. 33. [Map]
The team from Tilos Radio's English comedy and music show, The Budapest Syndrome, are hosting the first ever English quiz night at Manga Cowboy.
This is billed as the first of a series of quizzes which will be happening at Manga Cowboy and other venues around the city. It may be a miserable, cold and wet Wednesday but the combination of laughs and competition should be enough to get you warm and dry in no time! Teams can come ready-formed or just join others when you get there. Prizes are promised for the quiz itself and intriguingly also for the most entertaining and creative answers.

Also worth a try...
Garda Zsuzsa - Benkö Zsolt Blues Duó (Concert)
Szimpla Kávézó, [map] 20:00, free
If you are in the mood for some blues to warm you up as weather continues to get colder and colder and colder then try Benko Zsolt. He has a number of different productions but when he is paired with Garda Zsuzsa you can expect to hear a sweet blues duo with Zsuzsa on vocals singing dynamic soul music.
Winger (Concert)
A38 Hajó, 20:00, 5900Ft
Alice Cooper's bassist is in town tonight! All you die-hard Alice fans will be excited to hear Kip Winger's new band's upbeat and riff-based performance so head on out to A38.
JazzGödör (Concert/Dance Performance)
Gödör, 21:00, Free
As always, it is Jazz night at Gödör and if this night of music hasn't become a part of your routine there is no time like the present to incorporate it! Tonight's bill includes Szaksci Lakatos Béla Trió, ÁTLÁCCÓ and at 21:30 Willany Léo Improvisational Dance Theatre

It's finally happened! Andy has left the building... 
To be more precise, the final member of the original editorial team of the Hub, Andy Sz has decided to leave Budapest and move to France. So we now have an all new editorial team, struggling heroically to reach the heights of the illustrious founders.
We are still actively seeking more fresh blood and would love to hear from anyone who would like to write either regularly or occasionally. Whilst we intend to maintain the same basic concept, we are looking to improve and expand the site over the next few months, which will provide plenty of opportunities for you to test out and practice your writing skills. We are looking for help with the weekly listings and also reviewers, bloggers and anyone who has constructive suggestions to improve the site. We usually put together the listings every Wednesday afternoon and get together as a team, using laptops in a bar/café, followed by congratulatory drinks... If you fancy coming along to see how it all works, drop us a line at team@hubhungary.com

Depeche Mode (Concert)
Papp László Sportaréna
11th January 2010, 12,500-18,500 forint (tickets here)
Hungary's own personal Jesus comes home. Again!
Someone decided to call this the "Tour of the Universe", which hopefully isn't indicative of the band's imagination. Why do Hungarians love Depeche Mode so much? Check out this footage from their 1993 visit to fathom why.
