The Boss Is In Town... Combine That With An Ode To Cesar Chavez

Whoa, enough of the March Madness... Thank goodness it's April.
Dallas works itself into a tizzy whenever a big sporting event comes to town, such as the NCAA tournament.
However, truly spectacular is the fact that Bruce Springsteen... and the E Street Band... will be giving a concert Sunday, April 6. The start time of the event is at 2 p.m. The location is at "Reunion Park" which is allegedly next to the Convention Center (Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention center). For an article that contains a hodgepodge of gossip by the Dallas Morning News, click here.

Your movie news:
The new Cesar Chavez movie is a delayed event. The director is Diego Luna.
But, if the movie spreads the word about the hard-working leader's legacy, I'm all for it.
Here is Wikipedia's take on Cesar Chavez.

The End.
Shoot those hoops,
Alice

Listen To These 5 And You'll Be Good.... And, Lucha Libre? Hey, That's Not Texan...

The Index music festival is going on as we speak. (This would be in Deep Ellum in Dallas, TX). I saw this article by Hunter Hauk which indicates 5 songs you should be looking for.
I'm pretty sure if you just listen to these 5 songs, you'll be good.

During your trip to the State fair for two lonely last days... don't forget to look at the Lucha Libre exhibit in the Women's Museum.
It never hurts to get a little Latin history, no matter what kind.

THE END!
Alice
in a Lucha Libre way.

"Index" Of The Dallas Music Scene?

There is a festival in Dallas happening on October 18 And 19, The Index Music Fest (for short).
When I checked the list of attendees, I had only heard of 3 groups / singers. As you may / may not know, Deep Ellum used to be a hotbed of all that is musical genius during the 80s and for a while after.

Just because I have only heard of three groups, doesn't mean the other ones are not decent.
So go ahead, plunk down $39.

You can also go to the State Fair of Texas, which starts today.

A Big, 'Big Tex' Thank you for reading a little Texas blog!
