[Tango-L] Line of Dance in BA

[Michael]

We don't know if Hector gave instructions in Spanish BEFORE the filming 
began. He gave the microphone to the other man who knows English and French 
and that's when the filming began.

In other news, those who haven't been to Argentina will see that at this 
traditional milonga the unaccompanied women sit on one side and the 
unaccompanied men sit on the other to facilitate cabeceo.
