Re: [Tango-L] Vocals and Dancing

living and dancing, here, in BA, forlast ten years, haven't noticed that being any kind of a "thing".  In fact, usually, the leaders who do that, aren't from BA, I find. Sincerely,  db From: robert-b To: tango-l@mit.edu Sent: Sunday, October 11, 2015 2:40 PM Subject: Re: [Tango-L] Voc

At the expense of sounding arrogant/snobby.I have found if I am more discriminating and patient in choosing whom I will accept as my tango partners(ignoring some cabaceos by looking under the table for some lint, whatever), I have more than enough dances; avoid being a wallflower and in

[Tango-L] BA rental scams

Before buying my Palermo flat(which I rent, to BA tourists, now, btw), four years ago, I rented other BA apts. six times, over three years.  Two times, out of the six, I was cheated out of my deposit, etc., until I got smart, in various ways.  30% of the times!  Have never rented in any other bi

There are a couple of them out there, already, so, you can check them out, when you get here. Like any travel guide aide, it all depends on the editor...but milongas are constantly changing, here.so, they need to be continuously updated. Also, "best" is a very subjective word and each

[Tango-L] aron's answers

As stated before, tango dancing is always evolving in BA(rather than being a "museum" piece)as it does in all the world and since most(not all)of the best teachers, teaching in or outside of Rio de la Plata, are still of Argentinian/Uruguayan extraction AND traveling the wide world, spreading "
