Two Men Tango. Beautiful!
« on: April 08, 2009, 09:25:33 am »
I got this from Andrew Sullivan. Gorgeous!

Apparently, the Tango was considered too decadent for decent ladies and the only female's who engaged in dancing a Tango, where prostitutes. So, it was usually performed by two men.

edit: I looked them up, they are brothers! They are professional Tango performers and instructors. They perform as a couple. ;D

Thanks, Ian.  Nice way to start the day.  That's some fancy footwork going on!

Great number!

Several years ago I went to see a  fabolous Tango show from Argentina.  I remember a number with two men dancing.
BbM, I swear

Hey there, Ian!  Thanks for posting this!  Sensual and fun too... ;)

It reminded me of Cafe de los Maestros...checking the net...I still don't see a way to buy it on DVD.   :-\

These two can really dance!  It was a pleasure to watch them.  Many years ago I took an Arthur Murray dance course, which included 10 dances:  fox trot, swing, waltz, vienese waltz, cha cha, merange, rumba, samba, hustle, and the tango, and I thoroughly enjoy watching anyone doing ballroom dancing!
