Going to Barcelona

[don_svendo]

I'm going on a holiday trip to Barcelona next week, and naturally I'm eager to check out the city's salsa scene... What are your opinions on the different clubs there? (Don't know if it matters, but maybe I should point out that I'm a beginner.)
I'd also really like to buy some more salsa CDs since they're rather hard to find around here, so information on good shops would be much appreciated. I'm also considering buying a pair of dance shoes...

Cheers! 8)

I think there's another thread about this elsewhere....

Biggest adjustment that I had when I went was how late the scene gets started there. When I went to Agua de Luna (or at least that's what I think the name was), the rueda lesson was still going on at like midnight or so.

About music, I think you'll be just as well off by shopping on-line like at an Amazon.com rather than trying to find any salsa there.

Yeah, I think that holds true for Spanish nightlife in general. Regarding CDs, shipping costs to Sweden when ordering from Amazon are a bit expensive, although I've done it before... Ah well.
No DF members from Barcelona?... :wink:
