I got a message on 1/31 that it was being forwarded. I haven't seen it posted yet. This posting has added information about the Milongas and Practica also happening during Alberto Paz's visit. I know he posted his workshop schedule by my request. When I realized that another workshop by someone else and the Milongas/Practica weren't included, I sent you my complete posting. I hope this will clear up any thought that the two postings were identical. Would you please post mine that is attached? Thank you for your consideration. In Love, Light & Tango!

Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2000 14:11:35 EST From: Timothy Pogros <TimmyTango @AOL.COM> Subject: NA-W, NA-C, NA-E: Clarifactation on Snow Ball I have talked to a number of people concerned about dance time versus Demonstration time, Tango versus Salsa. I'm sure if you live in the Bay Area, or in Miami area, or the New York area, dancing time would carry more importance than floorshow time, since you see so much excellent dancing all the time. In the Ohio, Pennsylvania area, we don't see excellent tango performances that often, so demonstration time may carry a little more importance. Please let me make this perfectly clear before you purchase your tickets to the Snow Ball. Tango Music from CDs will be played for dancing at 6:30 p.m. during the cocktail hour. Dinner will be served promptly at 7:00 p. m, and when I know the last person has their dinner plate, I will start the 1st floor show with everyone participating doing a demonstration. Everyone is eating, No one is dancing, what better time is there for a floorshow. Around 9:00 p.m. a shorter floorshow will happen. Daniel Lapadula, and Tioma Maloratsky will each do a solo demonstrations, ending with all our stars sharing the dance floor for the finally. At 10:00 p.m. A Live salsa band will play. Belinda's Night Club is renown for the Salsa bands that they have playing there. During the Band breaks Tango CDs will also be played. So in other words, strictly tango from 6:30 to 10:00 After 10:00 Salsa and Tango both until 2:00 a.m. Live tango music with "TANGO PASSION Live Salsa music with "KaWaKan" with Mr. Sammy de Leon on timbales Tango and Folklore Demonstrations from Daniel Lapadula with Christy Cote' Tioma Maloratsky with Katrina Zeno Jorge Nel with Mara Carlson Hugo Gonzalez with Silvia Cepedes Marcos Questas with Christy Cote' Amy and Ray Hogan Tango Snow Ball, a dress up dinner dance at Belinda's Night Club 9613 Madison Ave. Cleveland, Ohio 216/651-1968 I am Tim Pogros (TimmyTango) 440/327-8211 E mail TimmyTango @ao.com www.TangoCleveland.com
