Rafael de Utrera after-concert party at Chi-Cha Lounge October 3, 2004

Special thanks to Behzad Habibzai, Juan Martin and Richard Marlow for providing transportation for the artists from Lisner Auditorium to the after-concert party. Thanks to tour manager Rafael Kotcherha for coordinating the after-party with the artists and big thanks to producer Kim Akhtar for making the concert at Lisner a reality! Thanks for the Lisner staff (Marketing Associate Carl Graci in particular) for putting up with me almost everyday. And finally a pat on the back for Miguelito for quickly getting the word out to the DC flamenco community and promoting this last-minute concert appearance by Rafael de Utrera.

Judging by the response of the audience during the concert, I'm sure that Rafael will come back to perform in DC again in the near future. In the meantime, visit Rafael's website at www.rafaeldeutrera.com
