So, I was thinking that after the initial introduction in Europe, Argentine 
tango lost its appeal after WWII and may have died out in most countries (and 
changed to something else in Finland).  Basically, mirroring the trend in 
Argentina.  It didn't pick up again until Tango Argentino played in France.  Is 
this incorrect?

Romero pointed out that Danel & Maria had milongas in NYC for years, apparently 
since the 1960's, according to their website.  I would guess that these 
milongas would have been more like ethnic gatherings and not the commercial 
enterprises we have today.  A place where people could speak Spanish freely and 
support a common nationality.  

I'm just guessing here.  Does anyone know anything differently?
