Best wishes for a wonderful birthday to a great lady and friend. Wishing you many more!

Does anyone have the lyrics to a great bachata song, "La Bandida" by Quiko Rodriguez (unsure of spelling???). Please PM me or post it.

Is there a good reason you want to have it done in DR? I would advise against it for sanitary/safety reasons and the possiblity of equipment being re-used (this could happen anywhere if you didnt know the reputation of the place!). You wouldnt want any possible "complications" ruining your trip!

Has anyone heard of a group (bacahata) "Los Herederos"? Just got back and heard a song of theirs played repeatedly on buses and in discotecas. Have tried several Latin music stores in TO, nobody has heard of them, anyone heard of them?
