I'd love to read more about Candombe...

The article states that Candombe is played in "Montevideo's central neighbourhoods". Actually Candombe is played in every neighbourhood of Montevideo. Traditonally it had been played mostly in Barrio Sur and Barrio Palermo, the neighbourhoods where the afro-descendants traditionally have lived. Now it is played all over Montevideo, even in the upscale neighbourhoods. It is also played in different cities of the country. There is even an event called "Las llamadas del interior" which takes place in Durazno. --200.125.25.88 04:19, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
