Join us tonight at An Tua Nua as usual! Scroll down for details.
Halloween falls on Wednesday this year and we're planning
a big party at An Tua Nua of course, costume contest, cash prizes. HOWEVER... it's also the scheduled night of
game 6 of the World Series, so we've been told by management that we may not be
open that night, depending on whether the Sox make it. So stay tuned. We may move the party if needed for that one
night.

This Saturday is a benefit party for Fernando's Hideaway
Show at Tabu ultra-lounge in Saugus.
Come out and support this show, which supports so many of Boston's Salsa
events. See mailbag for details.

An Tua Nua is a great contemporary Irish bar & grill

Sophia's). In the back they have a dance
club about the same size as the upstairs at Sophia's, with a sizable dance
floor that holds about 150 people, a bar, and plenty of lounge seating.
Close to the green line (St. Mary's on the C train,
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
front portion of the bar when you walk in, but don't let that scare you...
Salsa is in the back room! Full
Bar. Please check your coat.

witness and enjoy
some of the most representative music and dance
expressions from Cuba, which

contemporary music of Latin
