Rueda Flash Mob at Jazz-at-the-Park this Friday, Aug 24th
Greetings Casineros!
Get you dancing feet ready for some fun before everyone goes back to school. This is the last Jazz-in-the-Park concert. This time is Latin music! Come dance to live salsa music this Friday, August 24th, with Johnny Polanco Y Su Conjunto Amistad.
We plan to conduct a rueda flash mob at 5:30pm sharp! So if you plan to be there, get there no later than 5:15pm. The song I will use the song "El Que Baila Gana" by Pedrito Calvo Y La Justicia. The lyrics start off saying "Que lo que pasa'qui!?" and that is your queue to get in circle formation and shout in response "EYYYY!". Then Pedrito will say it again, one last time and you should all be in "Tiempo de Espana" position, so make sure you know who your partner is to get in the rueda. This will be the only staged rueda. The rest of the ruedas will be when the orchestra is playing. I will lead a salsa suelta line while they are playing. It's gonna be exciting!
I will call basic moves from Tim's rueda class and a few of my own that you all know. We plan to have some of our people there early to grab some grass space and lay out blankets, so if you can come early come find us. I will wear a hot pink t-shirt so you can't miss me!!! hahahaha!
Here are the details:
What: Blankets on the grass at 4:30pm and there after. Rueda Flash Mob at 5:30pm; Concert is 6-8pm
When: Friday (TODAY), August 24th 4:30pm to 8pm
Where: Calavera Hills Park - 2997 Glassgow Drive, Carlsbad, CA 92010
What: This is a free concert; You can bring food and libations! Break out that bottle of wine, drink, dance and be merry!
So come join us for some good times with our casino family members!
Ay'nama!
