Angels Disco

I have found among some Argentine guys a certain antipathy to darker skinned guys or guys from other South American countries such as Paraguay, Bolivia or Peru. So when I have commented that I intended to go to Angels the reaction has sometimes been a frown or a slight downturn of the mouth and a question "what do you want to go there for?" The reaction is generated because Angels is popular with guys from those countries mentioned earlier who who would not feel comfortable in Glam or Palacio which are very "white" discos. (Incidentally, the antipathy is reciprocated.)

I had been to Angels once last year but it was a midweek night and it was too early so I didn't get the full impression. I finally made a repeat visit last Friday night in the company of a visitor from USA. We arrived at 12:30 a.m. and had only a short wait in the queue. After entering you go up one floor to pay your entry which is $18 (pesos) which includes four drinks (beer or soda). You then enter into the main bar which has tables and chairs. From there you can access two dance floors; up one floor from the bar has regular disco music while down one floor from the bar has latin music. By the time we left at 2:30 a.m. the upper dance floor was half empty with people standing around and hardly any dancing. On the other hand the lower dance floor was packed with nearly every one dancing and having a great time.
