I wasn't planning to write about this experience we had last weekend, but when I saw the weekend themes proposed by Galenkp I got bored and threw aside the embarrassment to ridicule 馃槣馃ぃ. Here goes our participation in a musical event held in one of my favorite places in the city.
In the heart of Havana's Vedado there is a place that I love, I have already said it in other publications, the Yellow Submarine. It is a cultural center that struggles daily to keep good music alive and to give a space to Cuban rock bands.
There are always bands that play live their own music or cover emblematic songs of all times. The public is very etherogeneous and there are some that every weekend find there the perfect place to feed the soul.
For years, every Sunday from 4:00 pm the place opens its doors for a matinee until 8:00 pm. A recent initiative is to make this space a theme party and at the end of the evening, the best performance wins a prize. Last Sunday was an 80's party and my husband, daughter, sister and brother-in-law and I went there in our best costumes.
We arrived around 5 o'clock under a downpour, but the band (Gens) was already playing and to our surprise the place was quite full, so we had to stay in the back. What a way to dance!! It had been a long time since we had been to the "Submarine" and this was the first time for my daughter, who had a great time. We completely forgot to take pictures of the band, at the end we took, with his permission, a picture of their director.
The evening was hilarious, worth repeating. We plan to do it even once a month, so maybe you will see us again in our best costumes 馃槣. I will tell you that my brother-in-law (the one in the pink shirt) won the prize, it was to be expected because he was...unbeatable!!! 馃ぃ What do you guys think?
