A concert by Czech singer-songwriter Slávek Janoušek at Balbínova poetická hospůdka in Prague.

About the venue: Balbínova Poetic Pub

Balbínova poetická hospůdka (Balbínka) is a traditional Czech pub in Prague's Vinohrady district, hosting cultural events every evening since 2000 – folk, rock and Irish music concerts, theatre performances and poetry nights. The premises have a rich history: before World War I, the tavern U Zlatého litru stood here, where Jaroslav Hašek gathered with friends and the Party of Moderate Progress Within the Bounds of the Law was founded in 1911. The programme is overseen by Jiří Hrdina.
