Ron Fortin/Scott Stanton! wherefore art thou, sax players? the new jazz ‘bistrot’, Dishualded (nope, no idea what it means) has a superb new venue for music/jazz…
Nelson is playing there, and various musicians drop in: Adan, Bobby Darling, Mike Chrisman..it’s in a northern location, between the Hotel Santo Domingo and the furthermost Jades S.A outlet. Callejon de la Concepcion, #7…music Thu/-Sunday and in a great C shaped building…Nelson loves the old piano, a classic from the early 1900’s..the place is empty, waiting for tenants(art, etc) which may be a bit of a snag…similar multi-use/mini-malls in better locations are sucking…’wish ’em well..the music room is very cool.
i thought, so to speak, that our local version of El Muro was history…nope, thanks to Dave the Slave Hofmann, he says it’s open from midnight to 5 am, taking in the slack/customers that Riki’s catered to.
Thanks/tip of the sombrero to Hap for disclosing the other ‘venues of the night’ in Xela…’mighta known that he’d covered that territory…indepth field research is key…
The Steve Shelton Memorial Library? aka the American Legion library(nonprofit, $$ goes to putting local kids thru school)….more books keep getting donated (and some great stuff), the membership level is approaching break even…next to the Barvarian Garden on upper 7th avenida…100 q a year, open to all, open 7 days a week, 11-3..Barvarian? Bavarian…
Pappy’s Texas BBQ racked up a First Place in a Barbecue Challenge tonight…La Sala is screaming with an overflow crowd (early) 40 people (wedding party)booked for Lava tonight..weddings? lotta today, although the mid-day event at La Merced had babes in gowns…not dresses…gowns…the priest walks by and I’m wondering what he’s thinking…all that flesh, artfully displayed…maybe this evening, after the day’s take has been counted and they’re sitting around, having a glass of wine, slippers off… ‘hey, did you see that babe in the red….3rd aisle, middle left?’ ‘yeah…she comes to me for confession and let me tell you….if I only could…more wine, father?’ ‘can you give me any hints?’
