Some Timba & Salsa websites across US has rushed to announce Los Van Van USA Tour 2009 scheduled for  this summer.

Paul Goldman, Los Van Van agent from MonterreyInternational (company bringing Los Van Van in US), told us 3 days ago that ”There is no tour in place at this time, nor will there be until such time as visas are issued for Los Van Van by the US Government. The schedule  published is 100% incorrect and should be removed immediately from any web site.”

We all hope that the new US Government will ease US policy towards Cuban musicians,  we only have to wait & see.  This will be the first test of this nature for the new Obama team.
