2 x 1 hour sets and 20 min rest between sets of pumping fast paced timba, we were drenched!

Had a great time and the crowd loved it. :laugh:

This weekend the 4 week Cuban Festival starts, every Sat night in October its held at this different venue near my house, we will be performing every Sat night headlining after the other bands, we are on from 12am to 3am every Saturday, I will try to get someone to get some pics from the event. My hands are gonna be feeling it, we are pretty much gigging Thursday through to Sunday every week from now through to next year!

hope you've enjoyed the pics!
