[Tango-L] New generation of milongueros

[Igor Polk]

As far as I understand,
Milonguero is the one for whom dancing is the most important activity.

In the past they were poor. What else you would expect from a person who
spends all ( not necessarily free ) time at milongas instead of
hard-working?

I do not think it counts for the quality of the dance. It counts for the way
of life. 
Use this word for marketing, in any sense, is ridiculous. Master of the
Dance, and Milonguero are not synonyms. Of course, "an average milonguero"
is dancing better than other, normal people. Teachers and performers, even
good ones, who do not dance at milongas are not milongueros. I would say
than being a teacher moves you farther away from the name "Milonguero",
since it is becoming a business - and you can not waste much time just
dancing.

So, Janis, the more you market you friends, the more they spend time
teaching, the less Milongueros they are..

Just a free flow of thoughts,
Igor Polk.
