...this black-haired flamenco dancer... (a pubnight outing)
OK, it was just too tempting to quote a little Counting Crows when talking about this week's pubnight. Why? Because we were having a nice evening at The Capitol Club chatting away, kicking back on the bench and pillows when out of no where we hear "if everyone can bring it down a bit, we'll give you a good show."
A good show? What kind of a show? Yep, that's right - a flamenco show. Very unexpected. And a bit unwelcome. What do you do? Do you keep it down? Do you move to another bar? Well, if you're us, you recognize that a bunch of the people in the bar area WERE there to enjoy the show and we were a bit of distracting group, and so you relocate yourself. To what turns out to be a really really nice outdoor balcony/patio area overlooking the street. Bonus points to the Capitol Club for a cool outdoor area to match their cool indoor area. Negative points for random live entertainment when I wasn't in the mood for it. Probably at another time I would have been giving them bonus points for singing and dancing though :)
Yes, Aaron agreed with me that it wasn't quite what we were looking for that night... And ignore the "pubnight has to be in a 'pub'" sentiment he displays - I'm not sure I agree, but perhaps that topic of discussion at a future pubnight :)
