Hello al fresco Milongueros, HIT AND RUN TANGO ALFRESCO MILONGA cordially invites you to the final al fresco Tango happening for this season
MAIDEN LANE IN SAN FRANCISCO with Dale Meyer and his Live Tango Band STRICTLY TANGO SUNDAY OCTOBER 29, 2000 Hours 1 til 3 PM St. Francis Hotel after for drinks and laughs and MORE TANGO On Sunday, October 29, 2000 (weather permitting), a HIT AND RUN MILONGA will be held from 1PM to 3PM at Maiden Lane between Grant and Kearny Streets (near Union Square) in San Francisco. This is the same location as the last Hit and Run Milonga. Dale Meyer and his Strictly Tango band will provide the live music. As many of you know, Maiden Lane is closed to auto traffic so we can dance in the street and on the sidewalk. Many tourists and others will be in the area so an audience should develop. Our object is to create a 1920's like Buenos Aires street milonga scene so we ask that some of you (those who may wish) come in period dress (women in headbands, perhaps box hats, feathers, whatever - - men in double-breasted suits, hats, whatever). Of course, any dress is acceptable. As to the "run" in HIT AND RUN, the "run" part is that (those who survive) intend to escape to the St. Francis Hotel for drinks and laughs after, AND ALSO MORE TANGO, all to the beautiful live piano music of Alberto. As the St. Francis Hotel holds a very nice English Tea on Sunday afternoons in the beautiful Compass Rose Room, people there are often well dressed (for us the English Tea part is optional). The afternoon should be a lot of fun. RESERVATIONS at St. Francis - Not required. Donation - As the band is playing for tips only, a $2.00 per person donation for the band will be appreciated. Parking - Inexpensive parking is available at the Sutter/Stockton garage. Dance surface - The street is asphalt, but the surface is fairly good. However, it is suggested you leave your best dance shoes at home. For information, call 650-328-2718 COMING SOON: THE HIT AND RUN "WINTER CAMPAIGN"
