Beloved Friends and Salseros,
I did not know that having a back up plan would pay off so quickly; but, it has.
We have a new venue that incorporates pretty much all of your suggestions and feedback. We are no longer in a mixed space where we contend for the attention of the staff or get the feeling of being in a fish bowl among non-dancers. At FINZ (www.hipfinz.com), we will have our own room, our own bar, and even our own bathrooms.
You said that you wanted to have an earlier start and get to bed early enough for the following day. Therefore, we will start at 7:30PM and go until 11:30PM (these times are flexible but earlier seemed to make sense based on feedback). That way, you can enjoy an earlier night while having your full compliment of dinner, dance and fun. For food, you can order bar food downstairs throughout the night - you place your order downstairs (the kitchen is open until 10 PM), you pick it up and eat it either upstairs or downstairs. Or, you can meet Martha and me beforehand for a full meal.
The food at FINZ is excellent!
We will have a 6PM reservation to make sure we get off to an early enough start. But, of course, you can reserve later and come up just for the dance party. Call us (617-620-3022) to let us know if you want to join us for dinner or call FINZ at 978-744-0000 to make a separate reservation.
The cost is still just $15. We will have a full table of water available but there is also a cash bar upstairs (with us) and downstairs (with the public) for drinks.
Everything about FINZ is first rate. However, what really makes a party is you!!
We look forward to seeing Thursday night.
