Flamenco at Tapeo and Jason & Richard's birthday at Bambule

It's 5:44pm on Monday as I type these words. Been a busy day, but I still wanted to squeeze in a quick blog entry with some random pics from Saturday night--a very enjoyable night by the way. Besides my usual Saturday night flamenco show at Tapeo (where Ginette Perea was the dancer for the evening and in the words of one audience member: "Gin rocked the house!"), I helped put together a birthday party for my flamenco buddies Jason Vera y Aragón and Richard Marlow.

When the show was over, I packed up my sound system as quickly as I could and caravaned with Ginette, Serenity, Rachel, Carol and Jani up to Bambule. Isabelita met up with us at the door. The bouncer recognized me and gave us a break on the cover charge, yay! We arrived just as the party was getting off the ground. A very young student dancer named Mariana was giving a little show as guitarists Richard Marlow and Gerard Moreno played rumbas.

Forgive me if the selection of pics seems kind of slim today, but I'm sort of in a rush to get out the door since I still have to pick up my sound system from one club and transport it to Cafe Citron, not to mention set it up along with the lights, warm up my hands and chill for a little while before the show. Hope to see you there! As usual, we'll head over to Ozio Lounge to continue the party with the rumba group Duende Camarón.
If you wanna see more, I do have a larger selection of pics from the party in my Facebook album. Ciao for now!
