Tribute to a Hero



The title of this blog should really be "Imayen" which is how all three versions of "Imagine" were pronounced. We were in awe of how Mazatlan paid tribute to John Lennon.... We left after 3 hours and 7 bands in the Plaza Machado. Who knows how long the show went on. Six of the bands we saw were Mexican (visualize Jack Black sounding like Ricky Ricardo), one ex-pat band. We heard lots of the more well known Lennon/Beatles songs and some pretty ambitious offerings too - Cold Turkey, Working Class Hero, I am the Walrus, to name a few. It was a most wonderful show. It really touched our hearts as well as satisfying a rock and roll sweet tooth.
