Estonia
ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA
April 14, 19:00
For anyone old enough to remember "Xanadu," ELO needs no introduction. The non-bell-bottom set should know that this 70s and 80s supergroup out of Birmingham was very big in the disco era and beyond. The band, which got back together in 2000, will be performing their 30 year retrospective at Tallinn's Linnahall. Tickets cost 250 - 850 kroons (16 - 59 euros).

LITHUANIA
TRADITIONAL EASTER FEST
April 9
Easter is the most important religious festival of the year in Lithuania, and it's also an important secular holiday. Anyone wanting to get a taste of how the nation traditionally celebrates this day should come out to the Lithuanian Open Air Museum in Rumsiskes (Kaisiadorys District) on April 9 to see the holiday exhibits and experience folk singing, folk dancing, horse-riding, rolling Easter eggs and searching for Easter Granny gifts. You can even decorate your own egg to make a unique Easter gift.
