Because she is doing it for the money, Janis. Can she dance properly
herself? That young man with the ponytail was probably the cheapest taxi
dancer she could find. And the ladies would not be able to tell the
difference. How many taxi dancers in BA would be ready to lead a complete
beginner around the dance floor at Gricel anyway, I wonder?
I know more people in the dance business who are like that. Not just in the
tango world.
