I am not a big fan of
Mariachi Music. Especially when I'm choking down a burrito at a cheesy Mexican
restaurant. I hate those roaming bands that go from table to table, because you
have to stop eating and acknowledge them, and I assume tip them. Something I
have never done. You don't tip Mariachi bands or feed stray cats. It only
encourages them to return. On a warm June evening, with the grill fired up last
Saturday, I was the unwilling audience along with all my other neighbors to a
Mariachi serenade. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the Washtenaw Avenue Mariachi Band.
we had a Mariachi band in church on Sunday as a surprise for one of our young priests that is moving on to a new parish - he's from Mexico ! Sounded weird to hear it in church. But it was fun!
ReplyDeleteand it was Mariachi Day by the way. That sure didn't sound like a mariachi band to me!
ReplyDeleteI think is was just Mexican, maybe not Mariachi. They are Mexican, and they had the horns and accordion. The drummer was awful as you can tell. Too much cow bell.
