They have parking right before the club but i do not know how secure it is. If you have an expensive car then I would park it at the Rev and 5th parking lot in back of Caliente. My friend who has a 50k custom van parks there all the time and swears by the place.

A friend of mine used to own the place next door. Back then the parking underneath was a very nasty place. Common hangout of junkies, etc. Don't know how it is now. I always park at the multilevel Las Pulgas parking on 8th when I go to Revo.

The Mrs and I met Lou and Val there Saturday night and had a great time. The place could stand to be updated a bit but the crowd was perfect and the music awesome. The drinks were a bit more than previously noted here but we will definitely go back...

When we first got there at about 9:30 the salsa class was in progress and there were about 15 or so tables taken. By 11:00 - 11:30 the place was pretty well packed (about 70 tables). I would guess that the ages ranged from 25 to 60 with an average age of probably 30 to 40 - an ideal crowd IMHO for this type of venue.

I recalled reading somewhere in this thread that beer was $2.00 and mixed drinks $3.00. I paid for 2 beers and 2 mixed drinks and the tab was $14.00 - nothing at all ridiculous. Just more than what was quoted previously. Maybe the chica saw my Gringo face and charged accordingly...

:wink:

Are you really such an unhappy man bluejeans? I don't like to pick on people but I have never met anybody in my life with so much negative karma as you seem to have. For the life of me I can't even imagine why you choose to participate here on TijuanaBlog as you only choose to find the negative in every single thread. Why do you continue to post here if you hate it so much? I am sure that there are lots of "I hate Mexico" blogs out there and they would welcome your participation. The theme of the blog is "A Site for people with an Interest in Baja Culture". I only sense that you seek to bash the country/region/people and its culture.

If you don't know where to look I would be happy to help you find links to blogs with folks who share your point of view - there are plenty of them out there...

Baja Gringo has invited me to leave the blog. Maybe he thinks it's his blog. What do you think? Should I go or stay?

Nice attempt to make yourself the victim but you totally avoided the question. Based on your posting history what is your true motivation in participating? If you go back and look at your posts in the different threads your angle is always bashing Mexicans/Mexico/Baja and its culture. As the stated theme for the blog is for people with an interest in Baja Culture I can't see what your interest is other than to bash it based on the multitude of posts you have made.

If bashing Mexicans/Mexico/Baja and its culture is what you seek I offered to help you find one or more of the multitude of blogs out there that are full of people who are honest and open in that regard.

So let's hear what you really think bluejeans. How about a little honesty?

Sorry Bajagringo I started a tab in your name the week before. I should be hitting this place this coming Saturday and hopefully will run into Chino and maybe Bluejeans can come down and try some salsa?

"Should I go or stay?"

Actually it's "Should I Stay or Should I Go". I love the (odd) Spanish with the Cockney accent in the background.




Darling you gotta let me know

Should I stay or should I go?

If you say that you are mine

I'll be here 'til the end of time

So you got to let me know

Should I stay or should I go?



It's always tease tease tease

You're happy when I'm on my knees

One day is fine and next it's black

So if you want me off your back

Well come on and let me know

Should I stay or should I go?



Should I stay or should I go now?

Should I stay or should I go now?

If I go, there will be trouble

And if I stay it will be double

So come on and let me know



This indecision's bugging me

Esta indecision me molesta,

If you don't want me, set me free

Si no me quieres, librame

Exactly whom I'm supposed to be

Digame que tengo ser

Don't you know which clothes even fit me?

¿No sabes que ropa me queda?

Come on and let me know

Me tienes que decir

Should I cool it or should I blow?

¿Me debo ir o quedarme?



Should I stay or should I go now?

¿Yo me frio o lo soplo?

Should I stay or should I go now?

¿Yo me frio o lo soplo?

If I go there will be trouble

Si me voy a ver peligro

And if I stay it will be double

Si me quedo sera el doble

So ya gotta let me know

Me tienes que decir

Should I cool it or should I blow?

¿Me debo ir o quedarme?

Should I stay or should I go now?

¿Yo me frio o lo soplo?

If I go there will be touble

Si me voy va a ver peligro

And if I stay it wil be double

Si me quedo sera el doble

So ya gotta let me know

Me tienes que decir

Should I stay or should I go.
