[Tango] More about Saturday Night Milonga w/ Big Mandragora Orch. Under the Starts at Peavy Plaza

[Lois Donnay]

Yes, I made a mistake and wrote Sunday, but this event is Saturday -
outdoor tango with Mandragora. More about the MTC bus - the 18 bus goes
up and down Nicollet. Peavey Plaza is on 11th and Nicollet, and I am
behind 32nd and Nicollet. Buses travel about once every 10 minutes.

You can meet here at 5:30 for ride-sharing. 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
