Are you another Gringo, or is the fact that Nik is not Latino one of the things you don't like about him? Unfortunately for you, Gringos are a big part of the Salsa scene in Boston, like the non Latino promoters for Ryles and Sophia's on Wednesday where Nik is in the DJ rotation. If you are another Gringo yourself, then I really don't understand the Nik bashing. I thought everyone got that out of thier systems a while ago. But he's here to stay, so get used to it. I would encourage you, (or anyone else since we won't be seeing you at his gigs), to tell Nik if there's a song you want to hear... just see if you can stump him because chances are good that he'll produce what you want to hear and even play it, unlike some other Latin music DJs in Boston. My last thought is this; look at all the extra publicity that Nik has got here on this list. One negative comment has resulted in a few more very positve ones. Dancers love Nik and we'll follow him like the Pied Piper.
