Hey folks, tomorrow is Conchi's annual Alhambra Night. It's a really fun all-day event with a bellydance bazaar and show in the evening.

Details are here:
conchi.homestead.com/alhambranight.html

Anaya Gypsy will be performing in (aka "rocking") the show along with lots of other great folks. And a bunch of us got our old costumes, jewelry, and wares together and I'm hosting an "Anaya Table" at the bazaar. Come find a bargain, and then stay for the show! It's a really fun and laid-back event, and the bazaar is cool.

Hope to see some of you there. It's at The Place on Vine Street; bazaar all day, show at 7:00 PM.

      It was a great show! Lots and lots of fun performances.

      And I think we pretty much rocked it with the Raquy drum solo, people seemed to love it. I think Katy ordered a DVD, so we'll get to watch the whole thing soon.

      How are you, Rachel Jade? When are you having that baby??

        The last time I saw you guys perform was at the Midwest Hafla (just over a year ago) and you've made a huge leap! The intro was powerful (and fun) and I really enjoyed the whole choreography!

        Great job, ladies! :-)

        I'm hanging in there here at my nest.............so ready to do this thing. I keep hoping it comes early (even though both other kids went 4-5 days over there due date), because I can't imagine another 2+ weeks!!!!!!!!! Hope to see everyone back at class soon!!!!!! xoxoxox

        Glad to hear the show went well; sorry I missed it. You guys kick ass with that Raquy drum solo!!!!!!!!

          Thanks for all the great compliments, everyone!

          Rachel! I keep wondering every day if I'm going to get an e-mail or something from Katy telling me that you've had the baby. Take care of yourself and keep us posted.

          Nevik, I don't think anyone in AG remembers the Midwest Hafla as one of our better performances. Music issues led to cueing issues led to dance issues...we were mostly disappointed in ourselves from what I remember! I'm glad you've got a better association in your mind for AG after the Raquy drum solo. :o)

          I had a great time at the show. So many colors and props from several different acts. It was a fun change from the last few tribal shows I've been to. There's really tons of belly dance happening in Cincinnati.

            Oh, lawd, Kevin. The Midwest Hafla was definitely NOT one of our better performances. I'd hate to think someone was forming an opinion of us based on that show! Glad you got to see something better.

            Rachel, you better send up a flag when we have a new Anayalator in our midst!
