Through the years hits like “Kurumittos,” “Lunu Dehi,” “Piti Kotapan None” made people of all ages dance to their hearts extent. According to Tropical Lanka (the organizers) the dance was sold out three months prior to the event. Tropical Lanka is made up of the trio of Sanjiv Gunasekera, Upul Dharmadasa and Chris Ganlath. They were excited to have the Gypsies back after 12 years. The food was delectable and everyone was on their feet dancing to Sunil, Piyal with the Gypsies and everyone’s favorite “Thattaya” Ronnie Leech.
