I partied like the big boys and girls last night. I went downstairs to El Sanedrín at midnight and Teré had just started singing. I was there until 3:30 a.m., and I had two (not one, but two) gin tonics! I have to share some of last night with you. Not the headache and the sleep-walking. The music. Teré was dressed as a zombie. I prefer the living-and-breathing-looking Teré to this, but the voice was not affected by her stint as one of the walking dead. I hope you enjoy this almost as much as I did. You really should have been there!

| TERÉ, THE ZOMBIE DIVA. I LOVED HER ZOMBIE TOCADO/FASCINATOR (AKA “LITTLE HAT.”) |
 |
| STRANGE APPARITIONS CAUGHT ON CAMERA (UNRETOUCHED). NOTICE THE ECTOPLASM COMING IN FROM LEFT? |
 |
| STRANGERS NO MORE. THE POOR GUY IN THE MIDDLE COULDN’T GET HIS HEAD ON STRAIGHT. |
 |
| WHO WOULDN’T WANT TO ORDER A DRINK FROM BETTY? THE LITTLE DEVIL. |
 |
| THE FIRST DUET OF THE EVENING, A VERY NICE (AND TIPSY) ADMIRER. WHICH ONLY DEMONSTRATED HOW TRULY TALENTED IS TERÉ! |
 |
| MIGUEL, MY FINE FEATHERED FRIEND. |
 |
| ANOTHER DUET. THIS MAN COULD DANCE! |
It would seem that a good time was had by all. I thought you said Halloween wasn't a big deal in Spain. You look like you're seeing more ghoulish action than I did.
Stephen:
Halloween is not big here like in the States, but any excuse for a siesta… This is the most Halloween fun I've had in years.
You sure as heck saw more ghoulish goings on than we did… BUT… I loved "The Piano Man" and played it over again several times. AND… everytime I check out your posts now, I keep saying to Bill… "Hey, we may SEE some of that in a few months!".
Odd Essay:
I wish Teré were performing somewhere you could see her while here. But, she is usually hired for events outside of town. These past two Halloweens downstairs have been our only opportunities. Teré also sang a number of songs in English, but I also really loved "Piano Man."
what fun….I love halloween….what was your costume? Mine is posted on my blog….but be warned, it ain't pretty…lol
Monkey:
My "costume" was a black shirt and jeans. I was trying to look like an American expat trying to look like a Spanish local. Now that I'm finally getting back into reading blogs, I will check out YOUR costume. But I'll have to strengthen myself a bit first!
Looks to have been a great night, Mitch! Tere has a great voice and is a great performer.
And how handy that you didn't have a long walk home afterwards!
Jim:
My videos don't even do Teré's voice justice. Incredible. As for the walk, I left the bar at 3:31 and I was in my apartment at 3:32. Nice!
How much fun was that?
Love her "Piano Man"!
Bob:
I can't believe I stayed out until 3:30! It had to be good.
Hello Mitch:
Totally and utterly wild. What fun, and how we should have loved every minute.
Jane and Lance:
Such a joy to find so much talent in such a good friend. It was a great night and a great crowd, even those few who were beyond slightly tipsy!
Hi Mitchell! I just found the piece of paper where you wrote us down your blog URL. Nice pictures and great time we spent there! I've shared the pictures with the other "ghouls"…
Cheers!
César.
César:
I'm so glad you found the URL. Thanks for making the evening even more fun!
