It's possible a lot of us might not make that RSVP date:)
All kidding aside, I always enjoy your bulletins of upcoming events.
Have a good day.

> Hailing from Chile, Argentina, and Ecuador, the four members of Solazo
> will offer up a unique blend of Latin folk, contemporary dance music,
> and soulful ballads that appeal to all ages and cultures. Their newest
> CD, Mindful Journeys, is an exciting compilation of original music
> inspired by traditional styles borrowed from Spain, Cuba, Argentina,
> Chile, Brazil, and Ecuador. Layered with sensual Cuban rhythms and
> spiked with the unusual flavors of Andean sounds (panpipe, charango,
> and
> mandolin), the authentic and artful arrangements move fluidly from
> flamenco to mambo within the course of a single song. The band's sound
> is further distinguished by enchanting and pure vocal harmonies that
> consistently captivate. A crowd favorite at the Richmond Folk
> Festival,
> this group of immigrants currently calls Floyd County, Virginia, home.
> This concert is offered in conjunction with the Library of Virginia's
> exhibition The Land We Live In, the Land We Left: Virginia's People.
