This is a cool place. A circular open room with a thatch roof that accommodates about 100 people...normally. I think about 150 were there last night. People were packed in and sitting on the low wall which goes around the room on the outside...plus a couple of dozen smokers outside.
Yella and Rick played the music. He is a one man band...highly computerized full band sound...with Yella singing. The sound was great. This is unusual for here because most places have a tile floor, concrete walls and drywall or metal ceilings.
Not here! The thatched roof dampens the echos and the sound is crisp and clear. And loud...very, very loud.
That part I can do without.
I have found over the years that drinking is recommended for loud music. And I don't drink so I am loud noise challenged. (I like loud music at a concert. Just not at a social event where visiting is a big part of the party)
This restaurant has the best food for the best price in town. And it was great last night.
He was giving away free shots of rum all night...the rot gut stuff, maybe 3 days old before bottling.
No one cared that it was crap...a generous splash of coke took care of that problem.
I stayed longer that normal so you know it was a good time.
And it was drunk out. EVERY ONE was dancing. Even me for one dance!
As it turns out, I was sitting at a table with a woman who had 32 years of sobriety and a guy who had 25 years of sobriety. Plus mine of course. Not much danger in us getting drunk.
The party season is officially in session!
