I'll take that as a compliment Dan. I was sorta thinkin' the same thing. <g>
Well, about the jaded part anyhow. Shoot, it was the last show of the
weekend. We'd *earned* jaded status.
That's part of the beauty of the Wacos live, all the jaded observations
about the new record (and I have it on what for me is impeccable authority,
(out of courtesy I won't "out" him) the new record does indeed suck) and
hipster sensibilities get their asses thoroughly kicked and swept into the
joyous frenzy.
Dan was so overcome in the mass hysteria he bailed on me, right after I
bought him a Bud, the national beverage of St. Louis. That's mother's milk
quality musta put Dan to sleep. <g>

for some cool pictures, summaries, yadda yadda.

b.s.
n.p. Bill Shapiro's KCUR show, reviewing the Los Lobos recent solo stuff.
I'm liking the Cesar Rosas stuff I'm hearing... didn't rush out and get it
as I would have after lukewarm reviews here. Anybody want to set me
straight on the Cesar Rosas record? The Hounddog and Latin Playboys cuts
I'm hearing are as generally uninteresting as expected. Does David Hidalgo
still have his fastball?
