club about the same size as the upstairs at Sophia's, with a sizable dance

Fenway on the D, Kenmore on the B), plenty of street and lot parking.
Irish/America/Bar food available until 10pm. I have eaten there regularly, it is very
tasty and modestly priced.
Note: they have Karaoke with my man Kev-Mac Daddy in the

Columbia, to the rural sounds of Son and Changüí, the sultry sounds of the
classically–influenced Danzón and Cha-Cha-Cha, to the Rock and Funk-influenced
Songo and Timba and more. Hosted by
Alberto Vasallo Jr. and under the artistic direction of master dancer, drummer,
singer and choreographer Reynaldo González former member of one of Cuba’s most
respected traditional music and dance institutions Grupo Afrocuba de Matanzas,
Noche Cubana will offer a unique opportunity to witness and enjoy some of the
most representative music and dance expressions from Cuba, which have left an
imprint on the development of the contemporary music of Latin America and the
US.

performance for children of the South End schools on Friday October 26th, as
part of IBA’s efforts to bring quality Latino arts to our youth.
