Hope some Nomads make this cruise. There will be a performance in la Paz , Oct 26th, by Micheal Burks at La Catrina, starting at 12:30. He`s an
amazing and talented performer. The place will be jumping, come on down!!
Well Bill, I made it, and you had too much fun last night! The Malecon was rockin' this afternoon. Great music, and more white people than I've seen
in a year. The cruise contingent made a nice deposit into the La Paz coffers
today. Great to see the place jumping for a change!!Alan - 10-26-2011 at 10:04 PM

My buddy is working the sound on the cruise for Charlie Musselwhite. He said it was hot in Cabo...only 91. I said "thats not hot you big wussie"bajabass - 10-27-2011 at 09:28 AM
It was mid 90's in La Paz yesterday, and the boys layin' down the tunes were workin' up a sweat! Thought a few times somebody was going to
short-circuit themselves!!
La Katrina is normally a nights only disco. All done up in Dia De La Muerte decor. The locals did not know what was going on. It spilled out onto the
sidewalk because it was so packed. Heck, they ran out of Pacifico about halfway, and I had to drink a couple Coronas. I hope this is at least an
annual thing, if not more often.
They are in Loreto today. If yesterday was a true indicator, Loreto will be rockin' this afternoon as well!Alan - 10-27-2011 at 11:12 AM

I didn't
arrive until nearly 2 but stayed til the end when they closed out the set with a couple of great Santana renditions. La Katrina definitely wasn't
prepared for the crowd. At the end they had waiters carrying in cases of cerveza like pack mules
I would love to go fishing. I only arrived last Thurs but spent the weekend helping to coordinate the Mar de Cortez swim event. It started at
Pichilingue Sat morning about 0700 and the swimmers went north around a bouy at Tecolote then all the way back to the malecon to the palapa near Papas
and Beer, a 35km relay swim, arriving between 3-5. All monies raised by the event went to "Por Ellas", a local group of swimmers raising money for
breast cancer. Previous events have provided a mammography machine to the local hospital.
The wind is up today (thankfully cooling things off a little) but I would love to go fishing whenever you want. I'll be here for a month before going
home for the holidays. PM me when you want to get together

Jon-- Sorry I missed the show but Micheal Burks is starting us cruisers off today as we leave Loreto. He`s called "The Iron Man" and rocks!! Glad some
folks made it to the concert, Elvin Bishop played too late for me and I ran out of gas.
