THU.14.MAY.2009
Alright, family; last Thursday was intensely beautiful! Started the night off with the screening of the amazing film "Footsteps in Africa", about the nomadic Tuareg tribes of the Sahara. After that KCRW's TOM SCHNABEL did a great set to a dancefloor that was packed by 10:30pm! Then our own JEREMY SOLE welcomed everyone in with a few words and beats, before SAMBADA absolutely tore the house down with an hour of Brazilian rhythms and harmonies!
After that, residents GLENN RED and J.SOLE went back and forth all night on the tables, keeping the room filled until last call. Much love to all of you for making it a special one, and to our friends Rae and Nickodemus for dancing all night with us!
