So how was Harbourfront on Friday night??I ended up going to Niagara Falls so I didn't get a chance to go.

I missed Ricky AGAIN because I absolutely adore NAP TIME!!! But once I got there, it was nice to see everyone again.

I didn't really watch Sierra Maestra but I was listening and they sounded great!! Lots of people doing their dancing which was interesting to see.

My highlight of the night was watching Alex Cuba Band. It was such an honour to watch true, raw talent and I was completely blown away. He plays and sings beautifully along with his band mate from that night!!! I listened to their CD the whole way home that night. That guy rocks!!! LaDyBuG, keep me updated as to his (or any other related artists) future T.O. performances!!!!

Ok....so we'll see you there at 11pm......the ALEX CUBA BAND is at the Brigantine room......not a very big room and it's expected to pass capacity......I can't wait for that show either.....

That's why I'm going to ask her first. The last time she saw Ricky Franco & P Crew Orchestra she liked it so I'm hoping that she wants to see them again. (keeping my fingers crossed)
