Battle of the bands at Stevens Steakhouse

THE BATTLE OF THE BANDS - CHINO ESPINOZA Y LOS DUENOS DEL SON /// SON MAYOR - AT STEVENS STEAKHOUSE - September 14, 2008

It was a friendly battle with weapons that exhaust you but do not kill. Chino Espinoza y los Duenos del Son to the left, and Son Mayor to the right, bounced back and forth the attention of the soldiers on foot, which by 11 pm had the valet parking full to capacity - no more room for anymore soldier's horses.

Chino Espinoza y los Duenos del Son were dressed for the battle - their heads protected by helmets (a.k.a. black brim fedoras). Son Mayor brought along a secret weapon - the great conguero Poncho Sanchez.

Three songs at a time each, they went on 'til the end of the night, and when it was over, everybody picked up their weapons and went home. No blood anywhere... but we all left behind some sweat.
