GORKY PARK

Wed 21 's 20:00 's After releasing their smash hit, "Moscow Calling," in 1993, Gorky Park became well known all over the world. And although they are not that famous in the United States anymore, the band has continued its success in the rest of the world. While still very popular in Russia, the group will always be known to Americans (who remember them) as the first Russian glam rock band to wind up on MTV.

The concert will be held in Rock Cafe

Tickets: 250 kroons (16 euros)

TOWER SCANDINAVIAN RESTAURANT

An old-time favorite has gone in for a major image change, evolving from something of an English pub into a high-class, highly refined Scandinavian restaurant. Tower has retained its laid-back, welcoming feel: soft light, tasteful background music and enlarged windows that face the cobblestone street front. The diverse menu recently includes tacos, pickled herring, snails, reindeer, chocolate parfait and Finnish blueberry pie. What a selection. At least this place has variety.
