[QUOTE=Christopherd] Bossa Nova is probably samba in denial ;-)[/QUOTE]
Actually in Bossa Nova (new beat) the stress is primarily heard on the Upbeat of the tempo. As in "And 1 And 2 And 3 etc." Whereas in Samba the stress is primarly heard on the Downbeat as in "1 and 2 and 3 etc." The melody and rhythm is more syncopated than samba and this is why it was so easily adopted by jazz giants like Stan Getz...

Well, yes, exactly like I said, Samba in denial. A white man's version that doesn't go faster than he can count ;) ;)
But historically it's just slowed down samba. Cos folks like you and me look a bit naff trying to dance as fast as black folk.
[i](I think Jazzy's maybe showing his salsa background with all this talk of 1,2,3, so to continue the comparison, isn't Cuban Salsa - "And 1 And 2" - the one that looks like you've drunk too many to dance LA style??)[/i]
Given the violence with which carioca bambas thrust their hips, maybe bossa nova is just the 'low injury' version haha . . .
The excellent biography I'm reading just now and which I'd recommend - 'Samba' by Alma Guillermoprieto - is the story of a gringo (well, a Mexican) who joined a samba school in a favela and got shot haha - no, she got involved with the school. She talks of samba as a 'two-by-four beat' which is maybe an easy way to think of it . . .
[i][color=red]Be very careful talking music when Jazzy's about - he knows his stuff!![/color][/i]

Brazil VS Argentina
Thinking that a good way to escape the carnival, I am not interested to see it and to get 4x higher prices for maybe worst service, could be to go to take a look to Buenos Aires, actually I see there are direct flight from Rio and from Porto Alegre too, much cheaper from PA, so someone that was in both places, could tell me soething more ?
So far, I am looking for nice white or tanned skin girls with not fat ass and I should find more in BsAs than in Rio.
What about the prices right now in BsAs for the pro and about the sex scene ?
I know, I am gonna to read right not Argentina Private, but so far as I am in net cafe, I do not have all the time, I could have if I was at my hometown.
Thanks in advance for any suggests...

Login at the "OTHER COUNTRIES" option. they accept foreign AMEX cards.
[url]www.tam.com.br[/url]
Those two are the main ones.
Plenty of options in B's A's but not Termas there.
Main reasonably priced places are Cafe Orleans, The triangle bars and New Port. Asking price 300pesos negotiable.
Blacks and Madahos twice as much.
Privados average price 100-150pesos for the hour.

Read the above and you are done with RIO

El greco, thanks so much, I always put gol on google and found nothing....
It seems to me a bit cheaper BsAs than Rio, even if I have no idea about the attitude of brazilian and argentinian girls; which one are the most friendly and-or most passionate ?
p.s. better to stay in microcenter or recoleta ? How far are one each other exactly ?
Thanks....

BA is very restful after RJ. Recoleta is where I stayed last time and recommend it as a nice place to base yourself. Most stuff is walking distance. You'll find classic white skinned girls of great beauty and quite sophisticated (at a price) or there's always cheap and cheerful the other direction round the station. Nice nightlife near Recoleta, bars, social scene, world's best steaks. Getting there, fly by all means, but it's interesting if you do overland from Porto Alegre. Quality bus to Uruguay, check out the local talent and history, then the ferry across to BA. (maybe not your thing, but if you want non-touristy top-notch tango away from the crowds, PM me)

Thanks Christopherd, I wrote PM or if I answer you I got off topic as far we are in Brazil ;)

[QUOTE=Questner]Question: Plan to travel to Rio from NYC on Canadian passport without visa and enter BR on a second passport of one of the countries on the list that requires no tourist visa. BR embassy said it's OK but I want to double check. Any suggestions?[/QUOTE]
Did not quite understand
But if you plan to embark with one passport and arrive with a different passport, you might be in trouble. Don't these guys have passenger lists? John Doe from Canada suddenly becomes John Doe from France? Would they not find out that there was no John Doe from France on any of the passenger lists?

This is not a problem, I do this quite frequently. IE Leave 1 country on 1 passport and enter Brazil on another. For the same reason you want to, my second passport requires no visa.
