Despite a long, busy weekend and not arriving home until late on Sunday, Monday was still a success when it came to going out and having fun in the city. I was able to cross another item off my "must-do" list, which was
La Bomba del Tiempo!
 |
| Konex Venue. Too cool. |
La Bomba is a ridiculously popular percussion show that happens every Monday night in the Konex Center. The Konex Center is a cool venue that used to be an old oil factory- a fun place to watch a drum show! La Bomba consists of 17 musicians who play various percussion instruments. It is an improvisation show, but all the musicians use hand signals to stay synched with each other.

The show was so much fun! It was purely percussion for the first night, but then they brought out a lady who with a wicked voice who sang in accompaniment to the drums. After the singer finished her songs, one of the percussionists busted out a trumpet and began to wail on that! I loved it, the crowd loved it, everyone loved it! I drank a Quilmes beer (the number one beer here in Argentina), saw the amazing talent of the musicians, and enjoyed a really energetic show! And who said Monday nights were no fun?! Not here in Buenos Aires! :)
