Cohiba's Grand Reopening

The doctor gave me different meds so I attended the reopening of Cohiba's in Long Beach with my good friend, Li'l Pony. It was on a Wednesday night so I didn't know what to expect. Cohiba's has been closed for salsa for a few months and tried various styles of dance including Reggae. I guess it never got off the ground. So Salsa czar, Albert Torres is taking a stab at bringing Cohiba's back to its glory days.

Approaching the door, we saw people leaving which is never a good sign. But we soon realized they were "looky Lous". However, there weren't that many dancers, but some of my favorites were and it made for a fantastic evening. It was one of the few times that I got floor space with some of LA's premium dancers.

So thanks Albert for taking Cohiba's under your wing and hope the dancers will come back.
