MI SON CUBANO FESTIVAL AT BONELLI PARK, SAN DIMAS - May 4th, 2008

That was really fun.  Bonelli Park was a great new location for this festival that was impressively well attended.  Oscar D'Leon was the main number, singing along a band made up of musicians who have been with him from three years up to two decades.  Charanga Cubana and the Susie Hansen Latin Band also performed. 

Everything went great!  Good music, a wholesome bunch of people, food vendors, beer (ok.. the cups could have been bigger, heh), and many other booths, including a new one from the Museum of Latin American Art.  (By the way, I have a few free passes into MoLAA.  If anyone is interested let me know.)  The weather was perfect and the festival area big enough to handle the amount of people in attendance.  Couldn't have asked for anything more. 

Good going to Habana Promotions [http://www.habanapromotions.com ]for a great event!
