The one-stop shop for flamenco in Washington DC.

Yeah, it's official. The Flamenco Connection has pretty much settled into the Guitar Gallery location in Cleveland Park. Much of the stuff you drool over by looking at the Flamenco Connection catalog is out on the shelves here for you to pick up and examine first-hand and purchase right then and there. None of the annoying waiting around for mail delivery. 
My guitar student Matt, his friend Rebeka and yours truly stopped by to check out the wide selection of flamenco CD's, DVD's, books etc that they had to offer...

As for myself, I went to Cafe Citron to pick up my sound equipment and headed over to Las Tapas to setup for my usual Tuesday night show. The dancers were Claudia and Pam de Ocampo. We had a delegation of filipino VIP's at the table in front of the stage. It was just pure luck that Pam, a filipino herself, happened to be called to dance that night. In case you didn't already know, I'm filipino, too.
Afterwards, I hung out with my friend Josie, who used to work as the hostess here at Las Tapas. She was joined by her friend from childhood, Leslie. Anywayz, we'll be hanging out with Josie at Cafe Citron tonight (Wednesday) where's she's hosting a fundraiser for a children's diabetes camp in Ecuador. The fundraiser happy hour is between 4pm and 8pm but Josie should be there most of the night if you want to come and make a donation. There will be a Samba dance show and a free salsa lesson too. See you there!
