classically a Tequila Sunrise requires the ingredient known as grenadine…however, this being Antigua the grenadine is sometime superflous(not required)…OJ and Jarana…thank you Peter the Hodge for introducing me to that brand of Mexican nectar(cactus squeezin’s)…
ah, what another perfect night…stars/planets out and about: yeah I know that they’re always out but the skies aren’t always playing along..tonight, there were. Ricardo’s T&V packed again, this time accompanied by a lone bodyguard..night after night…well, 5 out 6..dos Reillly’s jumping…hit critical mass early, i s’pose..
that new coffee shop on the plaza between the guitar shop and Poco de Todos? you know, they’re picking up trade: the lighting, the decor…nice display of fruit in the cases…no, not Lance or Bruce…mangos, bananas, that kind…Flor of Dasha, newly turned brunette/morena…i’m getting used to the change…closing her doors at the stroke of seven..
another miracle at the hands/fingers of MDC…aka Carmen of the Salon Creativo on 2nd calle..got my poor tired footsies back into the game, yet again..thank you!
again, Pangea’s Lounge hosting Wayne Hooper and Adan tonight…again, no publicity…alas..these two are xlnt together…great alone but together, another level of music. I’da stuck around but the conversations on the patio were drifting off into drug stories, anecdotes of abuse, cha cha…ask me about ‘the 7 million hits of acid’ sometime…so..tomorrow….so what? ask Alex of Sobremesa about the new uses of Scopolamine in the States… thursday is the ‘day’ for some of us ex-pats around town, goin’ here, there or wherever…i can’t complain: every year there’s been an interesting crowd or party, all different…’08 I spent in Missouri, getting my Mom outa the hospital(again)…nothing open except the ‘convenience stores’…let’s see…the stale ham and cheese or the Ding Dongs? the ding dongs were working the cash registers..
i think (so to speak)that i’m looking for new quarters…i love this place but the noise is/has gotten to me…if anyone knows of something close in, i’m mostly ears…no rush, but…walking distance, por favor and no on Santa Ana..or San Felipe..it’d be weird living in another part of town(i can deal with it)..flaming jeeezus..another week and it’s December? time for another Tequila Nooner…vaya con queso
