Went to Budapest a couple years ago, and then took a train up to Prague- We halved our stay in Prague to get back to Budapest! Prague was amazing, but a negative vibe, at least toward us- Budapest on the other hand was a blast! We saw a great Talking Heads-ish band one night and hung out with locals who spoke just enough English to get by- There was a bar/club built below street level with a broad set of steps leading down from a block-sized outdoor patio- The museums were great, the public transportation cheap, etc., etc.- Can't wait to go back and see that modular! And get some more Unicum and Slivovice!

Banyek, if you do get the chance to try it out for some recordings in the museum, and are okay with it, then please could you pm me here, I would love to be hear what it could do 'in the flesh'
great! i'm going to get there in the next couple of weeks to record the bells and other machines... also, i've been mailing with authoroties, and they have contacted the engineer, istván horváth as well. a quite misty comment from them: "the synth is not in a not so good condition..."
i'll PM you for sure anyway!

good to read here things like that. i guess things here are more positive then, though local people's attitude tend to be negative instead way too often...
