Because a few people will be out of town the weekend I had planned on throwing the party I've decided to wait till March 22nd to hold the next party. Sorry about the date change.

Well due to people being out of town or not available I have decided to push the next practice party back 2 weeks...

Hello everyone, just a quick heads up that I'll be planning another salsa party at my house in March. The last one was a huge success and people have been asking me to do it again.

This Saturday night starting at around 8 and going till we run out of music will be a "Salsa Practice Party". For those wondering what a practice party is, it's basically a bunch of salsaleros getting together, dancing, trading moves and most importantly having fun. If you have a friend who you're trying to get into salsa this would be the place to do it. We will be learning, practicing and dancing! And those who are in the mood, we can rock out on Rock Band (seemed to be a hit last time).

Talk about a fun night. On the night of the "Noche Noel" I decided to hold a get together at my house seeing as how the venue was down the street from house plus I figured it would be nice for the people who briefly spoke with each other in the clubs and at the socials a chance to really get to know each other and talk. Everyone was sharp dressed and ready for a night of dancing. About 15 minutes or so before we decided to venture out Koki recommended firing up "Rock Band"... for those that don't know Rock Band is a video game in which you play musical instruments such as a guitar, drums and a microphone. I thought it would be a disaster as turning on the game meant turning off the salsa music I had playing but none the less I turned it on. From the moment it was powered on people stopped what they were doing and wondered about.

The following is a playlist I put together of some of my favorite salsa songs. Most you've probably heard at the social or at your favorite night club. I saw a post earlier about people not knowing artist names / song names. Hopefully the playlist helps in your quest to find some salsa favorites.
