Happy Thanksgiving to one of the coolest bass players that ever walked the earth. I spent a couple nights in Juarez recently. Everybody I know was worried about me because of al the recent murders down there but the people always treat me real good. The last night I was there I walked 20 minutes from the airport to the hotel at night and didn't have any problems. When I crossed back into the USA the next morning I was surprised that the pedestrian line went all the way across the bridge. I had some great Mexican sweet bread and coffee for breakfast in El Paso and headed to the little bus station to catch the Limousines bus back to Albuquerque. There were Homeland Security officers and drug sniffing dogs in the tiny bus station which I had never seen before. It's almost as bad as flying just to ride the poor people's bus these days. Everybody talks about how ugly El Paso and Juarez are but every time I pass through there I can't wait to go back. So much history and energy and a culture that is neither American nor Mexican. The border region really is an entity unto itself. So many beautiful old buildings ands lots of bargains in the little shops along the streets that lead to the big bridge. And the people on both sides are usually vey kind and friendly.
All the best to you y Los Carnales. Much love & respect, j.d.
How have you been? I hope all is well with you and Los Carnales. It's been real busy here preparing for Corkfest and the Day of the Dead art shows and playing with numerous bands. It looks like I'm going to have a permanent position with the Memphis P-Tails. Also played great shows recently with Joe Daddy and Felix y los Gatos.
Still working on getting our P-T cruiser fixed after a fender bender a couple weeks ago. The other driver who was at fault wanted to keep the insurance companies out of it. But so far he has only come up with half the cost of the repairs.
We're very exited because my daughter Aiysha is going to come up for a visit at the end of the month.
