Yesterday, I did something relatively spontaneous - at least for me. On a whim, I spent a bunch of money.
I bought a round trip ticket to Oakland and then I bought two tickets to see Caf� Tacuba at the Fillmore in San Francisco.
When Melina (ex-temporary roommate) saw the print out of my ticket she called me crazy. "You're only going for one day?" Yup. It's just to see los Tacubos and that's it. I just need to find my concert buddy. When I first found out about it and told the Redhead he said he'd go with me, but I still haven't talked about it with him. Both Vane and Chispa are interested too, but I didn't wait for confirmations from either one.
Am I crazy?
The track listing for the Sounds portion of Chispa's gift is done. Each song was carefully chosen to fit some theme or other. Some of them remind us of particular moments. I'm quite proud of myself and my mix.
