FRI EVE: Dance Outdoors to Ocho de Bastos! ๐๐ฝ
Wind down your week with the infectious vibe of Latin pop band Ocho de Bastos. Join us in downtown Rockville and dance to your favorite hits! READ MORE below...
**OVERVIEW**
If you're not already familiar, **Ocho** **de** **Bastos** (translation: Eight of Clubs) is an amazing local band with a huge meetup following. (At least 7 groups are currently posting this event!) Boasting a unique, toe-twitching fusion of **tropical rhythms** and crowd-pleasing **pop rock**, the band features a Carlos Santana-style guitar sound blended with powerful Latin percussion and catchy brass riffs. The **energetic and engaging lead singer** is equally at home belting out "Despacito" as he is "Sweet Caroline," guiding giddy audiences through **Latin-inspired dance moves** in the process. More info about the band can be found on [Wikipedia](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocho_de_Bastos) and their [official website](https://8db.us/).
**THE DETAILS**
***RSVPs:***
No rules and no worries! Numerous meetup groups are promoting this event. Feel free to **RSVP here even if you're already signed up** with another group. That way you'll be privy to useful comments and fun photos you might not see elsewhere.
***Event/Logistics:***
Friday's outdoor concert takes place on the main stage in the heart of **Rockville Town Square** (26 Maryland Av, Rockville, MD). The venue is a large village green space surrounded by **numerous restaurants** (both full service and quick service). **Food and beer/wine** are also available for purchase at pop-up tents along the green. Here's what you need to know:
* Your host (Carl, aka PapaDuck) will float a large **yellow duckling balloon** to help you find our group. (If you arrive after 6 pm, the balloon will be lowered somewhat to avoid annoying the folks behind us, LOL.)
* I will do my best to **save space** for us on the green. But if you arrive late, there are no guarantees.
* Bring a **chair or blanket** for seating. Seriously!
* Parking is available in **nearby garages**. The first 90 minutes are free. After that, up to 3 hours = $3. Up to 4 hours = $4. For more info on parking, click [HERE](https://thesquarerockville.com/directions/).
* Pack a **beverage and** **picnic dinner**, or purchase something from one of the many local establishments.
* Gotta pee? You'll find **restrooms** in the library (open until 6 pm) and local restaurants.
Thanks for your time and attention. We hope to see and dance and celebrate with you Friday evening! :)
