Guitarists group - Maureillas

Post by SteveB »

When I was in the area recently I was informed by my friendly agent immobilier that there is a group of guitarists, mainly English, who play in El Tap café/restaurant in Maureillas las Illas. In fact his information turned out to be inaccurate: they don't play there every Monday, as he thought, but on the 1st Tuesday of the month, so they weren't actually there when we turned up to see them.

I wondered if anyone is acquainted with this group, and can give me more information?

1st Tuesday of the month during the winter months (whenever they're supposed to be!) El Tap runs a sort of open-mike night. You need to ask the organiser (Joan Ortiz) earlyish in the evening if he can give you a slot. Depending on the number of people there you might get to play a few numbers. It started out life as an 'acoustic' night but actually most people use some form of modest amplification. There's an amp and a mike available, or you can bring your own. Lots of people turn up during the evening and it's a very lively and enjoyable event, though can get pretty noisy as the evening progresses!

I see this has now finished for the summer. Does anyone know of anything similar in the area that carries on through the summer months?

I believe they are in St Genis. Herman is on Facebook. I suggest you message him via there.
The club is Club 66 and is also on Facebook.
Sorry I can't be more help.
