2umbao 2sday A Reality

Hi, folks!

On 2sday, 28 Jan 03, the long anticipated 2umbao 2sday at the Cock 'N Bull Pub, 2947 Lincoln Blvd, Santa Monica, CA finally happened! It was great! Those of you that were there experienced it first hand. Those who did not have the opportunity missed a very fun night.

We started out with a salsa/mambo dance class defining and demonstrating the conga’s tumbao rhythm and how to use that rhythm to dance On2! Then we continued with a very cool and relatively easy On2 pattern that included a shine right out of partnering called “Rooster & Hen”. There were over a dozen people in the class to begin with which quickly grew to over two dozen. It was so much fun we may call “Rooster & Hen” the “Cock & Bull” instead!  ; - }

Super DJ Robbie picked it up with a lot of great music. Some of you told me personally that he outdid himself and I agree. There were well over 100 in attendance and I’m still getting email on how well they enjoyed the night. It looks like we’re on our way into making this the 2sday night spot on the West Side.

I have to thank everyone that came out to support and those that passed the word in a big way like Wil McZeal, Ruben of SalserosOnLine.com, Anthony Garcia, Kathy Diaz via the Canto Tropical radio show, Kay Torres, Tony Welch, Yeshe and more (sorry if I forgot anyone)! We could not have done it without those of you that could make it!

Also, big, huge props to Georgie Lombardo who made a monumental effort to physically drag 38 people on horseback and lasso them through a fish and chips joint in order to get them there. Just kidding. She did do some great friendly arm twisting to get people to come out and enjoy themselves. They’ve all said how wonderful the night was.

I’ve heard from several people that they thought that we would be open this Tuesday but we start again next week 2sday on 11 Feb 03. So come on out and lets all have a great time (remember: 21 and over only)!

Always On The Clave,

Mike
