[MNDancers] FW: [TSOM-Announce] Saturday Night Milonga w/ Big Mandragora Orch. Under the Starts at Peavy Plaza

[Lois Donnay]

Here's another announcement about Sunday's outdoor tango from
Mandragora. Several people have expressed interest in meeting at my
house in order to drive together, which is a great idea since parking is
difficult at Peavey. Also, if you need to leave early you can take the
18 bus right to 31st and Nicollet, behind my house. Meet here at 5:30.
Throw a bottle of wine in your car in case we decide to hang out here
afterwards.
Address is 3142 1st Ave S, 55408. 1 block E of Nicollet.

Greetings!

Mandragora will be playing 2 Mini-milongas on Saturday for the closing
concert of the Minnesota Orchestra's "Sommerfest".

* 5:30-7:45: The Quartet (Violin, Guitar, Bass and Accordion/Bandoneon)
will play a free concert Milonga on Peavy Plaza (11th. & Nicollet in
downtown Minneapolis)

* 8-9:30: The Minnesota Orchestra will play a semi-staged version of
Bizet's "Carmen" in the concert hall.  Tickets will be required for
admission, but you can listen to it for free on Peavy Plaza.

* 9:45-11:45 The full Mandragora Tango Orchestra (2 Violins, Viola,
Cello,
Bass, Piano and Accordion/Bandoneon) will play a mini-milonga on Peavy
Plaza (11th. and Nicollet) .  We'll have DJ'd tango music during our
breaks.

It looks like it will be a great night for dancing.  If it rains, we
will
perform in the lobby of orchestra hall.  The outdoor dance floor will be
concrete, so you might not want to bring your nicest dance shoes.  There
will be a large crowd of non-dancers, so let's give them a good show! 
There will be lots off food and drink vendors and a generally festive
atmosphere.

Barnes (bandleader/accordionist of Mandragora Tango) at
