season opener tomorrow!
In fact, they are having a season opener for 2010 tomorrow, Tuesday April 13th!
They will open a 3-game series against the Los Angeles Angels.
As you know, ex-yankee, “Hideki ‘Godzilla‘ Matsui,” the MVP of the World Series of 2009, will come back to the stadium. However, this time he will not be in the pinstripes. But in the Angel RED uniform.
I hope Godzilla will show what he’s got in the series and let NY know that GM Brian Cashman made a bad choice releasing him.
As I headed for Manhattan from the Bronx, I passed by the OLD Yankee Stadium. It’s been already one year since they stopped using it. And I was shocked to see its current condition.
old stadium
Oh my god! It reminded me of the GROUND ZERO!!!! Please click on it to enlarge.
I was feeling sad….The house the Babe Ruth built was now almost gone!!! The end of the era. But I hope RED Godzilla will probably create a beginning of the New Era, starting tomorrow!
The Old is gone and the New has come!!!
Anyhow, tomorrow’s Prince of Tango Club Meeting will cover “Salon Tango Nuevo.” We are going to mix the “Old” tango and “New(Nuevo)” Tango. It’s not milonguero style, but it is not completely “Nuevo” either. It’s a combination of both.
It is being spread by my favorite couple, “Jose and Virginia” in Buenos Aires. Now you don’t have to have two floors…You can enjoy both at the same time. Hope to see you all tomorrow.
Besos,

New York Quality Tango Lesson
I am sad about the ‘old’ Yankee stadium having lived in NYC for many years with fond memories of going to games and watching the Yankees beat the crap out of The Red Sox. I hope that the new stadium will be a good thing for NY.
As for Tango, I have never danced in NYC, but I know what I like and I prefer a close embrace. You might want to have a look at Tango@33 here in London to see how they manage the more traditional style with the new.
Thank you Arlene. Hope you can visit here again and leave another message.
I’ve never danced in London. When I go, I’ll be there at Tango@33.
