We arrived at around 8pm when it was still dinner and ate a lovely meal of mango/avocado chili salad and prawn curry served in a conch shell (yum!!) on a lovely terrace. We could see the band setting up near the enclosed bar and asked when music started. We were told that they'd start around 8:30. Well a bottle of wine and awesome conversation where we determined Jess and I are pretty much the same person later, it was about 10 and I think the band was just starting to think of going on.
This was also around the time that the first prostitute showed up. And they kept showing up! Many were so pretty and just dressed kind of like fashionable New York girls; others, well, they looked like prostitutes.
But then the band really started to get going. And we danced! And some woman tried to pimp us to her brother, but well, didn't really act like it was her brother. The crowd was pretty mixed--half expat, half local--and was really only getting started as we left around midnight. We're definitely going back. I love me some Banana Zoro & B Band.
They haven't picked up the Beyonce yet, but they did play some old school Madonna and Mama Africa and it was niiiiiiiice. Sweeeeet and eaaaaaazy.
