Re: Regular local events
Fri, May 4, 2007 - 10:57 PMoy!
just went to dinner with some lovely flamencas, and found out that there have been some changes at Chai Restaurant. apparently, the management is not very nice to their performers.
there will likely still be flamenco on thursdays, with different performers, but i'm not sure i really want to support that establishment.
and i was all ready to organize a night out to see Edie dance. bummer. -

Re: Regular local events
Mon, May 14, 2007 - 2:46 PMall i know is that the owner or manager was disrespectful towards Edie, to the point that Juan quit the gig.
i remember Lia had a similar experience about a year ago.
apparently Luis was going to take over Thursdays at the Chai.
