Thanks I didn't think he'd still be there, we saw him there back last May but I didn't think he would stay there as it is out of the way

hya folks, got back last week from another fab week in pdla and just have to reccomend a new bar that opened while we were there.
Its called Gorans bar, and its just at the side of parque santiago2, past brewers droop and next door to the sports bar ( which Goran owns also )
We went there most nights and always had a very warm welcome from Goran and Paco ( The manager ).
Its a lovely spanish bar, very chilled, with live music some nights, well, its a little spanish guy with a keyboard, saxaphone and clarinet, but he's fab !
We went on the opening night and had free canape's and champagne, and as I say, made to feel very welcome, all week our 7 yr old daughter was spoiled with them giving her free icecreams, kids cocktails, crisps and a baseball cap on our last night .
They only charge 2 euro a pint and the steaks are gorgeous !
They will even help you out with your spanish !
go on, give it a go !

Does anyone know where the new Oscars Entertainment Bar is? I have heard that Bitter and Twisted-Comedy Drag Act are performing there now. I will be staying at Torviscas Playa and have heard it is not to far away but any directions would be greatfully received. Would it be better to get a taxi?

Depends which way your coming from,

if your coming from the bouginvilla playa hotel, it is down the hill and on the left

if your coming the other way from palm beach then it is up the hill and on the right

basically not far from the rabbit bar, or the ibrox bar.

does that help

hi could anybody tell me if the motown magic bar in the apollo centre in los christianos has closed down, i was looking forward to visiting at the end of the month.

It's open

It is now closed

Yea its now a fish and chip resturant

yea drove past this morning... Harry Ramsdens !!!!
lol
shortest lived bar ever me thinks?

Is the Tropicana show still running, and if so, how much is it?

just got back last night,stayed again in san eugino area and once again mike carlton drags you like a magnet to the san eugene bar.he is simply the best at what he does,good acts on there
ALSO the new bar opened called THE THEATRE on the corner of Garden City area,owned by Nick Page and Tanya Tavoro (and a couple of others).
NICK PAGE and TANYA are married and give the best performances you will ever see,Nick has appeared in the west end of london and you are mesmerised by his quality.
ALSO there is Elaine Alexander - SUPERB and a comedian who i was not to sure of at first but by the time he finished he was class -TREVOR MARTIN.

On tuesday night the had a guest from UK called SAM SAPPRO(think that how it was spelt),he was a fantastic soul singer,On at Brahms and List one night next week,BUT look out for him because hes good.

Overall the bars were very quiet and they said it was all over the island,blamed it on the time of year... MY OPINION was the euro exchange rate ,the very high air fares and people decided to cut the cloth and stay in ,drink on the balcony etc,because there was plenty people by the pool sides in the day and the beaches but not in the bars later,EXCEPT US TWO (but then again i cant get out at home due to very early starts.)
Still a great holiday,the singers etc just make it for you.

Sorry, tropicana Stars is no longer running.

Night time shows now are la Hacienda, Las Piramides, Medieval Knight and Showtime the Sound of musicals

Am going on Tuesday, looking forward to this new Bar "The Theatre" sounds very interesting, will be trying it out! I know its only a small bar so does it get full? Also hows the Pheasant Plucker doing?

Hi Roy

Pheasant plucker was the usual, walked past at 9.00pm, and couldn't get a seat, even struggled to sit outside of barclays next door.

Theater bar is excellent, but is small, we went to walk in and it was dark, (is painted black) and very hot, so we decided to sit outside, great choice, heard and saw all the acts but was much cooler.

Drinks are expensive here, but are well worth it.

Not sure if you visit the temple bar, but Liam has gone home to Ireland for 6 months, so there is no rogue traders,not sure who is on now, but would be interested in hearing.

Hi matiz,

We've just returned (18/4/08) from a week at the Bitacora and Bitter & twisted where on there , ever other Monday I think, very entertaining, first time we've seen them.

The overall evening entertainment at the Bitacora has improved greatly since our last visit four years ago, as this was the only negative on our last visit there. The hotel is still fantastic in all other areas and they have started to update the rooms, so will inprove it further.

Regards

Oscars is opposite the church in Pueblo Canario...... down the side of the Bouganville hotel

Thanks for all of the replies regarding Oscars and Bitter and Twisted. I am sure I will catch them somewhere. Have seen them loads of times and would like to turn up somewhere when they are not expecting to see us. Ezzigo when you saw them at the Bitacora did you buy the dvd they have/ I have it and it is a fun reminder of the show. But not as good as seeing them llive.

Hi did you know Bitter and Twisted only perform in hotels in tenerife apart from 1 bar in the south of tenerife (Oscars). They also have their own website. Great fun to visit bitterandtwistedshow.com They have also been nominated for the Tenerife Entertainment Awards again this year, having won it for the past 2 years. Details of how to vote are on their website
