The cold air is causing everyone to seek warm places with warm performances, here what I recommend this weekend:

Friday:

Zuco103, they're huge and you'll find them at Paradiso; Grote Zaal, 8pm, €14 + membership.

I have never heard of Malkovich but they're Dutch and they will cease to exist after this show; Akhnaton, 8:30pm, €8.

Saturday:

Quatro Ventos are not to be missed, although they're Dutch, they play Portuguese Fado; Concertgebouw, Kleine Zaal, 8:15pm, Tickets range €21 to €31.50.

The Riplets, again there's nothing like watching a local band play its last show ; Paradiso, Kleine Zaal, 10pm, €10 + membership.

Sunday:

Its a bit more than flamenco, Stefka plays Badcuyp, Noordpool, 9pm, €8.

Warm Bad- with Amir Swaab on piano and DJ Rudy; Sugar Factory, 5pm, €10.
