4 Days Lisbon, Exploring Afro-Portuguese Bars, Music, Dance, Cuisine & Day Trip
## Portugal’s Soulful Capital
Join me for a quick pick me up break in Lisbon, one of Europe’s most charming capitals, relaxed, sun-drenched, historic, and increasingly international. It blends old-world beauty with a young, creative, global energy.
Full of warm and welcoming, stylish vibes but not flashy, calm by day, soulful by night
**AMAZING HISTORY & CHARACTER**
Lisbon is built on 7 hills, giving you postcard views everywhere, it's one of Europe’s oldest cities (older than Rome) Influenced by explorers, Africa, Brazil, and the Atlantic world

**Avenida da Liberdade** full of luxury hotels, wealth and diplomacy

Music is central to Lisbon’s identity: Fado is (traditional, emotional Portuguese music) Strong African & Afro-diaspora influence (Cape Verdean, Angolan, Mozambican) Afro-house, kizomba, batida, hip-hop scenes thrive at night. Dancing starts late (often after 10:30pm) with a diverse crowd with great vibes.
**FOOD SCENE**
Lisbon’s food reflects its global history:
Fresh seafood (grilled fish, octopus), African and Afro-Portuguese cuisine. Brazilian, Mozambican, Cape Verdean flavours, with great wine at very affordable prices. We can eat very well on a budget, especially outside tourist traps.
**PEOPLE & DIVERSITY**
Lisbon is increasingly international: with Portuguese locals, African & Afro-Portuguese communities, Brazilians, Europeans, Americans, and digital nomads. Love it as it creates a diverse, mixed, stylish crowd, especially in music, food, and nightlife spaces.
The country's population is diverse, with over 2,000 ethnic groups, and the most important local languages include Tsonga, Makhuwa, Sena, Chichewa, and Swahili.

🦉I Love Music @Post Supper Pub Crawl With Vinyl DJ FREE💿
Exploring the musical archives with captivation at both a very young age and later as music radio presentator, club DJ & musicologist - I discovered only snippets of an estimated 97 million songs even though I went all the way back to the 17th century!
If you love music, then you'll know it's not just entertainment but a spritual soulful experiene ("I hear my compositions as a single point of light, all I do is hold that point of light in my mind whilst I write it down" Wolfgang Mozart)
So let's immense ourselves in our passion by enjoying music, singing, dancing with drinks in hand whilst broadening our music knowledge and exposure by discovering new material, artists and even genres at fun musically themed night out for passionate music lovers in the UK home of rock n roll - Camden of course!
Contemporary or old - you must be passionate about music which means you will be prepared to talk about your favourite song(s) and or artist(s), influences and underlying reasons at ease. What is it that makes them stand out and unique? Does the song have personal relevance to you? Are the lyrics poetic or a philosophical masterpiece like in some old hip-hop or is it about the sound of the vocals or hypnotic melodies? Did the song (or artist) play a pivotal role in shaping political change & influence in society (yes some musicians have even died for their artform) or the evolution of new music genres, sub cultures and underground music movements today? Was Lennon & McCartney the greatest ever singer song writer combo or have you heard better? Who are the best all time music producers & song writers - Max Martin, Billy Joel, George Martin, Quincy Jones, Bernie Taupin, Dr Dre, Carole King? Did PWL records destroy the British music scene or contribute to it?
We can also touch on influential music producers, labels, DJs and radio stations as well. Discussion on all elements of musicology and enablers is up for grabs.
If you can - come prepared with links to samples (feel free to post youtube and other links in the comments section below) to demonstrate or be willing to sing/rap some lyrics so we can get an idea. Funky dance moves optional.
=========RENDEZVOUS POINT =================
We will meet inside the Good Mixer where Amy Winehouse's destiny to her young death began on the left side bar where she use to play pool. I'll be wearing Starwars lanyard and will share my nunber and furthe updates on the night. We will spend about 40 mins here and move on to next music place.

It's a chance to immerse yourself in the world of drumming and connect with others through the universal language of music.

**Schedule (This Sunday):**
• 6:00 PM – Free Bachata Taster
• 6:30 PM – Bachata Classes (3 Levels)
• 7:30 PM – Salsa Classes (3 Levels)

• Friendly teachers, clear level splits, and lots of practice time
• Great music and a welcoming crowd for all levels—absolute beginners to improvers
• Central location, easy transport, and good vibes all night
**Why social dancing is good for you:**
Social dancing is a fun workout that boosts your cardio, coordination, and posture—without feeling like “exercise.” It reduces stress, fires up your brain with musical timing and footwork patterns, and improves confidence through gentle challenges and quick wins. Dancing with different partners builds connection, empathy, and communication skills (you literally learn to “listen” with your body). It’s also an incredible way to make friends and feel part of a community—one song at a time.
Good to know:
• No partner or experience required
• Wear comfy shoes, bring water, and arrive a bit early for level check-in
• Classes start right on time—don’t miss your warm-up!
Price: £10 one class £15 two classes
6:00 PM class is FREE intro to bachata
RSVP now so we can plan levels and floor space. See you on the dance floor! 💃🕺

Contact me for sheet music.

Contra dance with Big Scioty May 2 - Clinton Heights Lutheran church
**Caller: Richard Ades**
**Band: The McKenzies**
**Clinton Heights Lutheran Church**
**15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
