Son Flamenco at Taberna. March 27, 2008
Jesús Rodriguez "Sivi," Francisco Peña and Jesús Serrano at Taberna del Alabardero. March 27, 2008 9:08pm
It's 10:08am on Saturday as I type these words. I play every other week for Anna Menendez's class at American Dance Institute and today I'm happen to be off, so I plan to attend Flor Pérez's (no relation) dance class at DC Dance Collective today. Maybe I'll take some pictures, but chances are I'll be too busy playing guitar to pull out my camera. Oh well. :-)
Anywayz, this is another quick blog entry with minimal commentary so I can get out the door and make it to Flor's class in time. The pics you see here were taken at Taberna del Alabardero restaurant last Thursday night in celebration of their 19th anniversary. There's a show tonight. Call 202-429-2200 to confirm show times. Enjoy!

Kudos to the perfomers: despite the rudeness of the audience, they did what any professional would do and kept going on with the show. Thing is that in the back room there was a private party and they were one of the worst audiences. They were talking loudly and even walked across the stage a few times during the show! I was so tempted to make a loud Shhh! from the balcony, but I resisted and just sighed to myself in frustration. You'd think that in a fancy restaurant like Taberna, the audience would have a little more class, but it's not true.

As for tonight (Saturday), I'll be performing at Tapeo (703-416-6431) in Pentagon City with Ginette Perea. As for tomorrow, I'm going to check out the flamenco/rumba show at Vinoteca (202-332-WINE) and take some pics to help get the word out about this new gig. See you there!
