Jay and Jack,

I was not there this year so I can not comment.  Brick has Googled the 
information on who the teachers were at this years festival.  Still, all 
fairness to Trini, they may have had *a* bad day, but several reports from 
participants over the 4 day festival should not be ignored.

Negative feed back to the organisers last year, especially about Los 
Hermanos Macana who wanted to have a good old time,  turn up late to a class 
hung-over, play the piano during class and forget about teaching tango, was 
given at the time by many.  It hopefully was acted upon, by them never 
having them invited again, but the complaints at the time for refund of the 
money spent on a wasted class was never acknowledged.  It left a sour taste 
in at least 3 international attendees who said they would never return to 
the festival.  It must be difficult to be an organiser at times and satisfy 
everyone.

Cheers
