December 4, 2004

Arrive: 7:30pm (Note: Late arrival, not one full hour ahead per norm.)
Play: 8:00pm (Sharp) to 9:00pm (One Hour)

Location:
De Anza Hotel
233 West Santa Clara Street
San Jose, CA

Dress:  Please wear Samba Whites and Red (2004) shirt.  If you have
a white Guayabara shirt (or any other ALL white shirt) please bring it,
in case we are asked to not show our Sambão colors.

Note:  This is NOT an official Sambão gig.  I have been hired to play
for Cristina Ribeiro (former Sambão dance leader) and her dancers.
I have hired a few drummers who will be paid, in order to meet the
minimum musician requirement for the gig.  However, there is no maximum
number of drummers allowed, so I have be given permission to invite the
the whole bateria.  Many of you expressed interest, and we always do
a strong show with more players.  So come join us for a fun gig!

Afterwards:
If a sufficient number of folks are interested, I can host an after gig
party at my house, which is close to this downtown gig.  Since we
are not supposed to hang-out at the gig/party, we can drink and
pagode at my house!  Let me know if you are interested.
