In This Small Village in Mexico, a Real Estate Broker, a Computer Program Bookings - [email protected] - Flip Nicholson 331 169-6193 or David Truly 333 902-3547 In this small village in Mexico, a real estate broker, a computer program- mer and a college professor met; they each came here for different reasons but they shared one thing in common: a passion for music. Their music is based on rowdy harmonies, rollicking guitar work and an undeniable chem- istry between the three players. Their 70’s flavored rock and roll features covers of great songs we all grew up with and loved, along with new music originals. Their original music is all about beer, tequila, good food, fun times and the kicked back Mexican lifestyle. It’s also about living life through all the good times and bad. It’s about putting world weary cares behind us. It’s about escape and living … really living before it’s too late. Somewhere in Mexico there’s a field of dreams … and somewhere in those fields, there were four gringos who got together to play some tunes and drink a little beer and tequila. What started as a weekend fling has become one of the most popular bands among retirees, ex-pats and visitors to Mexico. Based out of the Lake Chapala Riviera, just south of Guadalajara, The TallBoys Band notoriety began with one song and a video which offered a very different perspective on life and living in Mexico. One song led to another and eventually the release of their first CD entitled "Somewhere in Mexico" which is now available on iTunes and CD Baby. This group has become a favor- ite among retirees and aging Baby Boomers who live or visit popular tourism and retirement destinations like Ajijic, Puerto Vallarta, and San Miguel de Allende. Their songs reflect the spirit of a generation that has redefined the norms of society and will probably redeifne our ideas of "retirement" as well who are attracted to living in Mexico. On Your oWn Living in Mañanaville comes with a price. Living here is difficult - juggling tequila tastings and late night taco binges can really take a toll on your constitution. But as our friend “Mad Dog” Pierce would say, “Hey, it is what it is!” And here, “What it is” is not as important as “Who it is.” Along the shores of Lake Chapala you find a cross section of society that has jumped the fence in search of a little more. People like Mad Dog who found a new reason for living and laughing among a bunch of musical misfits. Here in Mañanaville, mourning the loss of those close to us is overshadowed by celebrating their life. For Mad Dog, Rock and Roll, Tequila, and a Potato Gun seemed appropriate. And as we blasted some of his ashes over the Lake Chapala sky, we raised our glasses and howled at the moon. This CD is for him and all of those who have crossed our paths. While we may sometimes feel like we are on our own, we know that we’ll never really be alone.

After years as a professional student, Truly turned to music in the late 1970's, and struggled along with other musicians who fought against the onslaught of disco music and synthesizers. The Truly Original Band combined country and bluegrass roots with the harmonies of the Andrews Sisters and the freeform style of the Grateful Dead – yes it was strange. After years in Nashville, Truly headed to Hilton Head Island South Carolina where he and an of cronies opened the Old Post Office Emporium – an infamous live music venue. Playing with the Bonzo Brothers and then the Truly Dangerous Swamp Band, he found himself eventually drawn back to the road, where the group became popular among southern colleges until the mid 90's when Truly suddenly jumped ship and returned to the land of higher learning. David wandered off to New England, got married and became a professor … and his guitar just sat in the corner. But all the while he traveled back and forth to Mexico and further south, always intrigued by the Hispanic culture and people. His research led him to pueblos in Mexico where bohemians, adventurers, and misfits had settled over the ages. During his investigation, he slowly found himself becoming one of his own study subjects … and then he picked up the guitar … again. Flip Nicholson A retired cowboy and jack of all trades Flip may be the son of a preacher man but he sure ain't no angel. Always on the prowl for the "next big thing" or something that looks like it, this Kansas native worked in the oilfields, construction, and the restaurant business, while traveling across the US. After some time in Colorado and Florida, this sod busting rodeo rider traded his chaps for a life in real estate in Mexico. Why Mexico? Well, like any country song will tell you, it was all about a woman ... but he also found life way down south to his liking. He spends his time hawking homes, auctioning off retirees, and slipping down to the coast on a sailboat where he can smoke a fine cigar with a cognac back. Whether it's a horse, a Harley or a 40 ft sloop, the Skipper rides for pleasure. This self taught musician can play guitar bass and harmonica but it's his "smashes and smushes" style of piano that separate him from the herd. He sings songs about beer, women, beer, women, hummm ... yep, beer and women. Joel Barker Joel Barker came to Lake Chapala from Colorado in 1993 to visit relatives and fell in love with the area. He's been back and forth a couple of times since then. As he says, "It took a couple of false starts but this has been my permanent home since 2002." Like most musicians, Joel also has a "day job." Actually these TallBoys seem to all have careers. Joel was instrumental in developing and enriching the multiple listing service for the local real estate board, CAR (Chapala Associated Realtors). It was the first in Mexico and is still one of the few in the country that functions well. Today that valuable information lives neatly in a smooth computer program which can be accessed on the laptop of each agent or the public at chapalamls.com. It looks as if Joel finessed the system until he put himself into a permanent job. Today he's advanced from "the MLS guy" to Administrator of the CAR MLS. Joel, another self-taught musician, says, "For me, it's all about fun — mine and the audience's." He is well aware that beer is the sub- stance that seems to always go hand in hand with rock music. A few years ago he began experimenting with small batches of "TallBoy Beer," in unlabeled bottles that he handed folks off the bandstand when they dropped a pittance into the tip bucket. He was having fun at that too, tinkering with another obsession and adjusting recipes and balancing ingredients to produce a variety of subtle flavors of beer. Now it looks as if he's turned another fun hobby into a business as he has just registered the brand name Barker Beer and is talking about going into production of his pale ale and his amber. Dale Hetler Dale Hetler was raised in southwestern Michigan and has played drums since he was 10 years old. Over the years, he performed with artisits such as Ted Nugent and opened for groups like Procol Harum and the Guess Who. Since he was 18, he was the conductor and percussionist for Galen - an extraordinary pianist and keyboardist. After years of travelling and recording he retired to Mexico after watching a 60 minutes show on a criminal who had left the US and settled in Ajijic. But he missed playing - and so when he met another bunch of criminals named the TallBoys, he said, "Sure I'll play!" www.tallboysband.com www.youtube.com/tallboysband www.cdbaby.com/cd/tallboysband www.itunes.com/thetallboysband Bookings - [email protected] - Flip Nicholson 331 169-6193 or David Truly 333 902-3547 Originals Somewwwhere In Mexico: Somewhere in Mexico Hasta Manañaville Laguna Moon TallBoy Shuffle Drinkin’ TallBoy Beer Who I Am It’ll be Alright On YYYour Own: On Your Own Makin’ a Mess Wild Dog Blues Glorietta Run For the Border Gris Gris Covers Song Name Artist Song Name Artist After Midnight Eric Clapton Love Her Madly The Doors Angel from Montgomery John Prine Mariposa Tracionera Mana Back in the USSR The Beatles Moondance Van Morrison Bad Moon CCR Mr. Bojangles Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Blackbird The Beatles Negra Tomasa Caifanes Bring It on Home to Me Sam Cooke Oh, Lonesome me Hank Williams Brown eyed girl Van Morrison Ohio CSN and sometimes Y C’est la vie Robbie Nevil One toke over the line Brewer & Shippley Deal Grateful Dead Panama Red Riders of the Purple Sage Desperado Eagles Peaceful Easy Feeling Eagles Domino Van Morrison Revolution The Beatles Don’t Think Twice Bob Dylan Rocky Mountain Way Joe Walsh Dr.

  • Poesía Coral Antes De Que Nos Olviden
    Tarea Poesía coral Caifanes Antes de que nos olviden Antes de que nos olviden, Haremos historia. No andaremos de rodillas, El alma no tiene la culpa. Antes de que nos olviden, Rasgaremos paredes, Y buscaremos restos, No importa si fue nuestra vida. Oh……. Antes de que nos olviden, Nos evaporaremos en magueyes, Y subiremos hasta el cielo, Y bajaremos con las lluvias. Antes de que nos olviden, Romperemos jaulas, Y gritaremos la fuga, No hay que condenar el alma, Oh……. Aunque tú me olvides, Te pondré en un altar de veladoras Y en cada una pondré tu nombre, Y cuidare de tu alma. Amen. Pálido punto de luz Claroscuros en la educación http://palido.deluz.mx Número 52.

Eta tesis no existiría sin ustedes, los recordaré con gran afecto. Resumen. La presente tesis de investigación se inserta dentro de los debates contemporáneos sobre cultura urbana en la frontera norte de México y se resume en tres grandes premisas: la primera es que el corrido y el metal forman parte de dos estructuras musicales de larga duración y cambio lento cuya permanencia es una forma de patrimonio cultural. Para desarrollar esta premisa se elabora una reconstrucción historiográfica desde la irrupción de los géneros musicales en el siglo XIX, pasando a la apropiación por compositores tijuanenses a mediados del siglo XX, hasta llegar al testimonio de primera mano de los músicos contemporáneos.

  • Caifanes Ofrecerá Magno Concierto En Toluca
    This page was exported from - Report3 Export date: Sun Sep 26 20:24:57 2021 / +0000 GMT Caifanes ofrecerá magno concierto en Toluca Donde las haya, Caifanes es una de las bandas más legendarias, influyentes e importantes del rock mexicano. Desde que anunciaron aquella presentación en el Vive Latino del 2011 lo suyo se volvió un hito y como tal se dedicaron a crecer los sueños de su público que no los han dejado ir a descansar, pues lo que era un ?aquí nos tienen y nunca nos volverán a ver? se ha vuelto una renovación constante de su calidad con cada presentación. Es así que ahora en este gira en la que celebrarán sus primeros 30 años de trayectoria como una de las formaciones más influyentes de la era moderna del rock mexicano, los llevará a presentarse el próximo sábado 29 de abril en el Estadio de Beisbol Toluca 80, ubicado en Toluca, Estado de México. Caifanes como se comentaba, es una banda pilar del rock iberoamericano y está cumpliendo 30 años en este 2017, desde hace un año se corrió el rumor que estaban grabando un nuevo disco que resulta un sueño para sus fans. Además de celebrar tres décadas, de editar algo este año el grupo estaría cumpliendo además 25 años de uno de sus discos más exitosos de su carrera ?El Silencio?, del que se desprenden grandes clásicos como No Dejes Que?, Nubes, Miércoles de Ceniza, entre muchos más. Hace unas semanas, la canción de Caifanes ?Aquí no es así? se programó al unísono en estaciones de radio de todo el país como gesto de unidad de la iniciativa #To2Unidos en contra de la campaña que lleva a cabo Donald Trump como presidente de los Estados Unidos en contra de los migrantes mexicanos.

The World Trade Center Mexico City (WTC) is part of an international association that promotes free trade. The administrative offices for the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) were once housed there. But in everyday speech and on the placards identifying the destinations of the peseros (microbuses) that crisscross the city the WTC is better known as Hotel de México, a widely publicized hotel project originating in the late 1960s that was never completed.
