EL TATTOO DEL TIGRE: EL ULTIMO DEL TIGRE - FAREWELL CONCERT
Stopping at your peak: not only top cyclists or athletes do it, talented orchestra's do too. Exactly 9 years after their establishment, the 30 member mambo-orchestra El Tattoo del Tigre has decided that it's been good and enough. Their track record doesn't lie: three successful CDs ('El Tattoo Del Tigre', 'Sensacional' and 'Chico Max') with mambo-interpretations of originals from the 40's and 50's and their own compositions too. Also a long list of unforgettable concerts on the stages of the likes of Rock Werchter, AB (in '01 and '04), Lowlands, Printemps De Bourges, even as far as Dries Van Noten's Parisian catwalk. Just recently they taught their folk to dance during a sold-out 'A Night With The Tiger' tour, in which the ghost of the old Cuban ballrooms was returned to life. According to witnesses, Belgium was momentarily situated in the Caribbean.
But ... the tiger shall roar twice more! In style and grandure, what else would you expect. On Sunday 25 January '09 El Tattoo will take leave of their homebase, Antwerp, in the Bourla. The very very last concert will be on Saturday 31 January in our very own AB. The place where El Tattoo recorded their first two CDs, where they were also at home - albeit with other musical projects. For a fine farewell, beautiful people like yourselves must of course be there. Place El Ùltimo Del Tigre in elegant letters in your concert diary already... and it will be commended to memory later.
