Classic! That's the best way to describe last night at Pi with a true to its name "All Star" band, two fantastic performances by Dal Bouey and an electric vibe from Detroit's salseros. The bar has been re-set and you really can't ask or hope for more from a night of dancing. You never know how the best ideas will take shape and if they will fly, but this really was great planning and great execution rolled into one.

I'm always telling people "we have something really special and unique" in our dance scene - its unlike any others I've encountered - maybe not the biggest or the most advanced, but probably the most open, enthusiastic and committed. In that spirit, Salsa Pete's vision to combine members of 4 bands into a super group for one night really paid off and we all benefited as they sounded fantastic and brought a new energy to so many classic songs. Its no doubt a lot of effort went into this endeavor for everyone including Pete the band and the musical director Bobby Guzman so they are really to be congratulated. It would be fantastic in my humble opinion to see this band play on a big stage like the Chicago Salsa Congress or Canada Salsa Congress - they would be a surefire hit.

Since it's inception, Pi has been one of the best opportunities to go out and experience Detroit's salsa scene and for their "Thank You" to their patrons for one year of support, I say no - Thank You!
