                <description><![CDATA[Every Saturday and Sunday old people gather in Izmaylovsky Park to socialise and to sing traditional Russian songs - chastushki. It is actually like a freestyle hip-hop gathering: there's usually a man playing the accordion and women (MCs) stand in a circle and come out in turn. One woman sings a verse, which can often be quite offensive but is always funny, before another replies with her own verse.<br> <br>A little bit further in there's an old-school disco with 70s and 80s music playing from tape recorders and old people having fun dancing.<br> <br>Those not in the mood for dancing can walk a little bit further to the chess players' hut, where serious men ponder their next move while discussing the latest political developments over their beer.<br>It's all actually really nice to see and they don't mind you joining in at all, even if you're not their age.<br><br>The action usually starts around 4pm on weekends. It is more common in the warmer months from May to September.]]></description>
