From ancient times to today’s school bullying Last night, we in the audience of Jazz Dock all became proud Icelanders for a couple of hours, Pétur Ben, Ragga Gröndal & Guðmundur Pétursson took care of that.

Since yhalinen.com is not a news site we can and will publish small happenings that are not necessarily what one will call a burning issue.

Old lady, young lady and not so young man, WOW! Petra Vlková vocal and Jaroslav Šindler guitar, what can go wrong? Well nothing, and it didn’t. The Old Lady, the jazz club in the middle of old town Prague gave us an absolutely brilliant start for the year 2024 last Friday (5.1).  Thank You Petra… Petra Vlková
