Subject: NA-W: Milonga at Anodyne, Downtown Albuquerque
The Albuquerque Tango Club will host another milonga on Tuesday night August
8, at Anodyne, a swank, hip spot on Central Ave. (Old Rt. 66) between 4th
and 5th streets in downtown Albuquerque. It starts at 7:30 PM and there is
no cover. Recently renovated, sporting interior designed by artists,
Anodyne has a very good dance floor and sound system. It has the feel of a
1940s supper club with a sort of Batman/post apocalyptic feel. Our last
milonga there was a grand success. A full bar and restaurant offer a range
of excellent fare and there is free parking in the garage on Copper near 5th
St. right behind the club. For more information about opportunities to tango
in Albuquerque and surrounding areas, please visit our web site at:
