why do the tuk-tuks travel in groups? seems to me that if they spaced their routes, they’d get more business…o, that’s right! business? it’s a Guatemala thing, where reason/logic and such don’t apply.
Tomorrow night, 6pm…Lori Shea has mounted a production…oops, wrong semaphore/metaphor…at the Spanish Cultural Center, from 6 to 8 or so…most of Antigua’s traveling troubadours will be there, for the launch of her Antigua Musical Organization, which will try to bring some order into the musical scene here..6th avenida between 3rd and 4th calles..video stuff, interviews, a lot of chairs and maybe it won’t rain, like it did earlier tonight.. Yep..thunder and rain but just right…15 minutes or so, just enough to settle the dust. A bit early? usually, the last week of Semen Santa gets some rain..Jackson says he’s not going but will be at the Red Zebra, down by 8th calle/3rd avenida..
yes, got ‘bit’ by the ATM bandits but it’s working out (slowly)…Mike D says he got hit a month ago by one of three restaurants in town…nope, no names…ask him..
Antigua? this is a tough town, like Vegas but smaller and without the ‘escorts’ and gambling…if anyone has a problem with OTC meds, alcohol or any other kind of addictions, this isn’t the place to stay clean/sober..
Alex Long’s (Fusion)new cantina in the back of Nido Antigua is shaping up but I wouldnt’ expect the soft opening tomorrow night…I popped in, they were working (sic)..maybe Saturday (pick one)
And, I’m surprised that someone hasn’t come along and rented the old Tacocontento space on 5th avenida…prime location, with Semana Santa coming soon..and I was dismayed to hear of the motorcycle/old man in the street/event last week…re Loris thing tomorrow night: after party at Kafka’s…9 or so..
