Jason Vera y Aragón and Kariné in Sevillanas. November 13, 2006 9:42pm (photo by Keith)

It's 10:20am on Tuesday as I type these words. I went to bed as soon as I got home last night and got a good night's rest, yay! So I'm going to finish up this blog entry and head out around noon to pick up my sound system at Citron, drop it off at Las Tapas, take care of a few other errands and chill out this afternoon.

So last night's show at Cafe Citron was pretty decent. The turnout wasn't bad for an unseasonably warm Monday in November. There was a very enthusiastic gathering of Venezuelans crowding behind the stage giving all kinds of jaleo and palmas. Kariné was telling me afterwards that when we got this one girl up to dance on our stage during the rumba, a lot of the guys in the club were practically lining up to watch, hehe. OK, so this girl was kind of cute anyway, but there's something exciting about being able to inspire someone from the audience to join our show.

What's interesting about the above pic is that photographer Keith captured Kariné in what seems to be a moment of calmness. I can't speak for her, of course, but the cool thing about flamenco is amount of satisfaction you can get out of it, even if it's just for a fleeting moment.

Anywayz, check out these other pics from the rest of the show...
