things to do in Brazil

[Jeff Blanding <jeff@modaldub.net>]

hello everyone,

jans' worldbridger email reminded me...

my brother and i are two loopers heading to Brazil from 12-26 to 
1-22. normally we are based in the San Jose and San Francisco, CA, 
areas (we share www.modaldub.net with some friends), but we hope to 
explore new atmospheres and make new friends in magical, musical 
Brazil. if things go well we are planning on returning for a few 
months this summer, with a view towards performing and recording with 
some of the multi-faceted Brazilians.

does anyone on the list have any advice, tips, experience, etc., 
regarding Brazil? we are starting off in Rio and will be moving 
around from there as the melody takes us. i have heard good things 
about liberal politics in Minas Gerais, and music in the north-west, 
as well as good things all around about the towns of Olinda and 
Recife. of course, Rio and Sao Palo have famous music scenes... 
decisions decisions ;)

thanks-in-advance,
jeff
