Hi Rodz.
I have not heard anything. Not sure what the new owners are planning. I go in June so if I hear anything I will post it on here.

If your going try Oscars. Same great atmosphere with plenty of fun and games. They also do food. Many of the acts from Oscars now perform there including Bitter and Twisted-Not to be missed.

Matiz

Thanks for that.

Can anyone tell me how many bars/pubs in Los Cristianos and will I find plenty of Karaoke and Live Entertainment to keep two 13 year olds entertained on a night time and without being full of rowdy gangs.

Is there plenty of bars that serve food without having to feel you need to leave the bar after you have finished eating?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Val Richardson reporting that Oscars is up for Sale in her latest 'The Paper' Column

HERE

Yes I can confirm that the report by Val Richardson that Oscars is up for sale is true. However I have it on good authority (Val herself) that the current owners are not in a rush. She will also keep me informed as to any developments and I will post them here so people can keep track of where she is. I am going over in June so will also be able to put more info on here once I have been

Well, haven't seen this forum as quiet as this ever! Just to keep it going :haha, My hubby and I are off to Tenerife from end of May for 2 weeks. We are both retired but both like to go out and about looking for some entertainment when on holiday. Any suggestions for a good night out while we are there?

We're just back from a week at the Iberostar Torviscas Playa and stumbled by accident on the In and Out Bar, next door to McDonalds on the beach at Torviscas. If you like loud rock music like I do you'll love the band who pay there from 9.30 till midnight every night called SOUNDCHASER. They are a local band who play covers of all the great rock bands from the last 40 years, with the empahisis on the 70s and 80s. They were so good that we went back nearly every night at some point to see them. Even my wife who would normally run a mile from such stuff was raving about them !! Because the bar is down at the sea level they are able to turn up the volume without upsetting anyone. If you're going to that part of the island, you must go and see them !!

Hi. It depends where you are staying. I usually stay in the area of the Bouganville hotel. There is a great bar just down the road at the side of this hotel called Oscars. Fun and entertainment every night. Different acts each night with a variety of music. They also do meals which are really nice. Friendly staff. You will have a great night.

Yes I agree - Soundchaser rock! What a terrific band. So glad we discovered them too. We went back a second time to see them and will go again next time we're in Tenerife! Best group I've heard in Tenerife.

sometimes i go in the hereford bull to see chubby

yes we saw soundchaser begining of may,got a taxi all the way from los christanos,brilliant band,probably the best band i have heard in the 8 years i have been going to tenerife

Thanks folks. Matiz, must keep a note of that. Little legs, if you mean Chubby Brown definately will not be going there

diffrent people, diffrent taste i respect that. when you say a you want a good night out entertainment wice. what are you looking for.? then we can narrow it down to the place where other members can direct you into

What I had in mind was maybe a good comedian ---I cannot stand Chubby, a Country and Western night, or a good tribute band, There are probably plenty of these but just wondered if there were any REALLY good ones.

Hi Digby. I mentioned Oscars in a previous post. If you want a good mix of music tribute acts and comedians then this is the place to go.

BUT THE BEST WITHOUT DOUBT WAS GEORGE KING (comedian)"
what a night tears streaming down peoples faces and sore bellies with laughter.
this bloke was on the old comedians TV show (showing my age now) and believe it or not, its a comedy show "WITHOUT SWEARING" great to hear someone can still do that without all the foul language. > dreamers

Would I be right in saying it was the Lizard Kings (or similar) that occupied that spot until about two years ago. They were terrific too. Came across Soundchaser just after them and was blown away. Took my 21 year old daughter to see them in January and she was suitably impressed.

Where do Lizard Kings play now? Heard they were good too!

You forgot to say where this really good comedian appears ?
