Normally, when you go salsa dancing, drinking profusely beforehand is not a good idea. Normally I'm not in Vegas....
Gold Coast was fun. Band started right at 11:00 PM and DJ played a variety of Latin styles (cumbia, merengue, bachata, etc) in between sets. Crowd was super mixed, except that...
...we knew we were in Vegas because I swear to you there was a table of "off duty" (quick, think of stripper synonym), um...exotic dancers. :-)
For $10 you get a DJ, a band and a voucher for a free drink. That's a pretty darn good deal for a place that's just off the strip. I will warn those of you who like mixed drinks though, that both the margarita and daiquiri tasted like they were so loaded with sugar we earned an instantaneous promotion to diabetes land!
