Fado vadio in Alfama

Lisbon has many Fado houses, places where you can listen to Fado de Lisboa while having dinner or simply a glass of wine. In most of them you can listen to Fado Vadio which is a more amateur fun style of Fado. In this form of Fado, whoever feels like singing can sing and many times the fadistas will sing in turn improvising verses along the way. The end result is pretty awesome...
