   About Baldemar Velasquez & the Aguila Negra Band
Aguila Negra was formed in 1998 consisting of Baldemar Velasquez and Jesse Ponce. Baldemar found Jesse, as an accordian player, and formed the band. Baldemar has a musical background dating back to the year 1961 and has used music to motivate and encapture peoples heart for the union. Baldemar, of Mexican decent, is passionate about his work and lives and breathes for La Causa. He is today's Moses of the Latin American peoples. Forming a union to provide better wages and living conditions for the immigrants who come to the United States every year. This union, called the Farm Labor Organizing Committee, has interwoven music into the movement for strength and for motivation and encouragement. Jesse is an accomlished accordianist who came from Texas and is now settled in Toledo, Ohio. He played the Bajo Sexto for the famous Flaco Jimenez under a Warner Brothers label for several years, then later formed his own band called Sal y Pinienta. When Baldemar decided to cut a record he searched and interviewed several accordianists and when he found Jesse he found a friend and also a talented man who was ready and willing to contribute. They have recently cut a new record which will be out around Christmas. FYI: Baldemar & Jesse are not mediator of this myspace account, but are fully aware and supportive of it :) Thanks, Christiana V.

Wow, wow, thats all i can say! And i'm glad you guys are pressuring those ppl they need to be, lol. It's so funny b/c all the words you used were so like in my vocabulary, but i had to think about it, lol, but i appreciate that, i need that every once in a while to brush up!! Sorry it took me forever and a million years to comment you back, i dont get on here that much, but i felt really really bad when i looked at your awesome message and didnt comment back for like ever and ever. Hope your trip was fun, and you will have to tell me and my fam about it or send some pics of something sometime, its sounds really interesting.
Glad to see you and the family are doing good, and yes, hope to hear from you soon...

Hey Daddikins! I miss you, I hope you're having a good trip. The fireworks were amazing tonight (as they always are) but it just wasn't the same without you and you bursting out in song with the National Anthem at the end. We did sing it for you though. :) Love you a lot, Pops, and I'm praying for you- come home soon!

I play fiddle with western MA's best Irish acoustic quartet: Woodkerne. You might have heard me talking about it on WMUA's Celtic Connections (91.1FM). I'll be there again Friday the 9th of March with my friend Laurie talking and fiddling. Check it out!

One other thing, If you're a fiddler, then you'll want one of these bows. You can order one yourself from Steve Perry at Gianna Violins! CLICK HERE. See you soon, Adam Sweet - inventor, developer
