Si nos coje fidel!
Last Saturday night, during the Cuba Nostalgia Convention's peak hours, the Babalú pavilion was rocking. We had the pleasure of featuring Rhett y Los Borrachos Empeñados as they played one hellova great set of tunes. my personal favorite is "El Negro y la Balsa (si no coje fidel)", but their own particualr rendition of Caballo Viejo was totally cool as well.
You can purchase their cd here. Tell'em Babalú sent you.
Here's a photo Amanda took as these guys played and sung their hearts out at the convention:

To Rhett, Michael, Tony, Mireya and the rest of los Borrachos: Gracias guys! You totally rock.

They were great! I plan on seeing them again soon, the band will be playing at Transit Lounge this Thursday. Doors open at 9PM.
I put up the info at Brandon's Puppy.

I had the privilege of lining up to one of those wall-mounted urinals simultaneously with two of the guys in the band.
I think they were almost *shocked* when I turned to them (looking them straight in their eyes, of course!) and said: That was a hell of a show, guys... thank you very much!
They thanked me and we all walked out... then I had to run back into the men's room, because I had left my eyeglasses perched on a window sill.
Yet one more great moment at CubaNostalgia.
