Weaving between lanes of consciousness and reaction eventually became tiring. The last thing I remember wondering about was that burning in my throat. Was the warmth my own blood, or the grasp of your fingers on my throat?
SL Exploration - El Pueblo - A New HotSpot? A Thriving Latin Club & Community
I was at a lull in my Second Life adventures tonight. I decorated my land earlier today so I've already been a little burnt out by that. So, I wasn't really sure what I was doing on tonight. Then it hit me. Let me look at the handy dandy destinations guide! I went to the places that ARE "most popular right now" at the time of writing this post. There were two clubs in the top few with 50-65 people or more. They were Muddy's which is a very well known club in SL and then a club called El Pueblo. I've never heard of El Pueblo, but I will say my experience was nothing but positive. I can't wait to share this adventure with you!
Photo is created by the owner of the club and I do not own right's to the logo. Just wanted to make everyone aware ahead of time so I don't get canceled.
Themed Nights & Themed Night's Schedule:
First, I came during a themed night, tonight was 1950's night at the club and let me tell you, it was hopping! The energy, the vibes. We all know us Latino's love to party but I've never seen so many people actually dancing in a club instead of going AFK and standing around like they're getting paid to exist. Every night is something different. I found the schedule and will post it below. The themes are different but consistent with everyday of the week.
Monday: La Cantina Club: Country + Tejano + Regional Mexican
Tuesday: Las Palmas Club: Tropical Night (Salsa • Cumbia • Merengue • Bachata + more)
Wednesday: EL PUEBLO: Theme Party Night (different theme every week)
Thursday: 80s & 90s Rock & Pop Club
Friday: UnderGround CLUB: Techno +
El Pueblo is a collection of 5 clubs in SL.
Like I said I came during 1950's night and all the songs were in English Mami's and Papi's so if you're not looking for just Latino beats then you will find a mixture here. The 1950's songs were all the hits from that era which was amazing. The host and DJ are speaking Spanish the entire time. It's such a comforting vibe. There are so many of us too! You don't realize until you see 65+ people in one place.
All the songs were upbeat and songs you could dance too, the party definitely didn't stop, not even for a moment. To be honest this is the first time I've stayed through a whole set willingly between the songs, the people, the environment is so lively and peaceful. I can't say enough good things about this club. This is also only the second club that I've joined the group too.
Just so you know, I'm not promoting and not getting anything from posting this. This is just a cool little hole in the wall gem I found while exploring the grid. Bottom line, I highly recommend coming in and just enjoying the music, even if you don't know enough Spanish to talk It was an amazing experience.
Dancing:
What is a club without dancing right? There were pose balls for singles and couples on the main dance floor and right outside the dance floor there were little pose disks with dances to dance alongside others. I chose a random one next to a random girl I don't know and she was so accepting and even asked how I was and we literally danced next to each other for about 3 hrs for the entire set. Everyone here is really nice and no one seemed to mind that I primarily spoke English with a lot of broken Spanish. There is a lot of space here and the club was decorated to the theme.
People:
One word, packed. The entire dancefloor, packed, people everywhere! if you are looking for a place to feel like part of a community this is definitely it. The chat had a lot of people talking and people aren't just AFK here, they are actually interacting, listening to the music, and enjoying a night out. This is what SL clubs were like back in 2005 and it's good to see that a good quality club still exists instead of a lot of wannabe clubs that end up closing as quick as they open (not to mention it costs a lot of money to start a club in SL).
At the end of the day, I really enjoyed my experience at El Pueblo and joined the group. I will 100% be back, everyone was nice, accepting, talkative, and the music was good it's not just someone playing songs through YouTube and the song picks were thought through. The stage was themed for tonight's themed night, people were dancing and having fun and it reminded me of the good ole days with clubs that actually made an impact and was fun to be in! Whether you're latino or not you will be welcomed here and you will love the vibes and the music that come with the lively scenery and group of people.
