Milonga de los Consagrados @ central region leonesa (This is the > same location for Mi Refugio and Nino Bien And supposedly the place where the best-of-the-best porteneos are supposed to attend from the information a teacher told me. One lady of my group having a bit of stage fright due to the intimidation of the place and thus not dancing very well, was told to "sit down" less than 1 minute into the 1st dance. Tough crowd. They did play salsa; jive as a break from tango too. > > 5. Miscellaneous > DJs seem to follow the 2-1-2-1 approach to music. 2 tandas of tango, 1 > tanda waltz, 2 tandas tango, 1 tanda of milonga.

It is around 6-1-6-1 in some places in Australia. _______________________________________________ Tango-L mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/tango-l
