Patience is a weapon. Caution a virtue.
It is said, in Estonia, heroes are those who wait, watch and act only when the time is
right. In 1991, after nearly fifty years of rule by a brutal Soviet occupation, the small
Republic of Estonia, confronted their occupiers by announcing their independence to
the world. Their charge heralded the collapse of the Soviet Union and the freedom of now suddenly
former Soviet republics. And music played a pivotal role in these historical events.
“The Singing Revolution” tells the story of one country’s undeniable thirst for self determination
and its unshakable belief in what it means to be free — to be Estonian. A film by James and Maureen Tusty.

Happy Hour

After skipping it last month, we are ready to go with an ESTONIAN HAPPY HOUR this Friday night, starting around 7 pm.
Mister Days is located one block south of the Clarendon metro station, down Highland Street. Street parking is also available in the surrounding area. Rumor has it that we will again have discounted Rolling Estonians, SAKU beer, and an occasional Estonian rock hit played complements of Hillevi Einseln, who will be our DJ until 9 pm. After that another DJ takes over and the place converts into a dance club after 10 pm.
Come early or later, we'll be there awhile. See you Friday!
