Sambistas, As you may be aware, carnival in Brasil starts next saturday. Rio Rythmics is having a street parade including bataria and dancers in boundary street, west end on Saturday night (
21th) around 8.30pm. I have spoken with Tarcisio from Rio Rythmics and he is happy for members on GRES Unidos da Primaerva (us) to join in. He will let me know which instruments they have, and what they need. At this stage it looks like they need shakers, surdos, and snares, however I will confirm.
So preliminary plan is meet at 4pm at my house for a brasilian bbq (churrasco), carnaval on the tv (or a video if its not live), a bit a pagode, a few caparihas for those not driving, some dancing, and maybe some costumes for thise drinking a few caparihnas. Anyway, details to follow.

Note from Remko: note this in on the 21th, not today!

Pity, we don't have a uniform with the " Brisbane Samba School" text to get some free ad for the school. Hate to see us mistaken for the Rio Rhythmic mob.
Angus, how do you know people in such a high place ? Does it mean you can DANCE too ?!?!
Man, I won't sleep until saturday thinking about this brazilian BBQ, caipirinhas and carnival on TV.
