Yeah, I usually play tres dos. Melvis Santa was singing, she is a professional singer from Cuba. She is also the leader of the rumba next Friday at 33 Lafayette. I wish I could go, but I will be out of town.
I hope to see you at the Zinc Bar rumba next Thursday.
To find the Central Park rumba, if you enter the park at 72nd St on the West side, follow the road down to the right, cross the main park road at the light and continue going east past the Daniel Webster statue. Make the next left turn up toward a fountain plaza and listen for the drums, then follow your ears down to the lake and the benches. From the East side, continue west past the stairs down to the fountain, and make a right up into the smaller fountain plaza, then as above.
The rumba usually starts around 5 and goes until the cops shut us down at 10. I won't be at the park tomorrow, going to see Pupy y Los que Son Son at the Highline Ballroom. Have fun.
