[Tango-L] [SA] RE: San Diego close embrace Festival 2010

[Tony Rathburn]

In reading the various comments and criticisms of the San Diego Tango Festival, I make no excuses for poor floor craft and bad navigation skills... regardless of style of dance...

I am bothered by mis-information however...

I just took the time to revisit and review their website...

http://www.sandiegotangofestival.com/

Maybe I'm missing something, somewhere... but, I've visited and carefully read each page.  I can NOT find the term 'close embrace' used anywhere on the site... 

I can not comment on this year's event, except to say that I wish I'd been there.  My prior experiences make it one of my favorite festivals.  I completely enjoy the festival... the friends who attend... and the San Diego community.  

Then again... I've never been to a milonga... let alone a festival... where there were no examples of poor floor craft... including truly 'close embrace' events...
