Loca por la Música

Flaco Jimenez and Cheech Marin perform one of Marin's biggests hits.

In case you are not familiar with the song, here is a clip from YouTube:

Although overall impressions of the convention were positive, opinions and constructive criticism were offered when asked about how the Dallas experience compared to Las Vegas where it took place last year:

"After the Dance there were no eating places. The hotel should set up a buffet and drinks!"

"Too many pauses at the dance. In Vegas the music never stopped. Also, how can they run out of Bud Light not one, but two nights! Vegas was better."
Arnoldo Castro, IL

The following comments were anonymous:

"After the Dance, there is VEGAS and it doesn't close down."

"There were fewer Tejanos in Vegas."

"The crowd seemed younger in Texas."

"It was better organized in Las Vegas."

"Registration line was too long."

"The (Fan Fare) set up was much better in Dallas. There was hardly any room in Vegas"

"The dance floor at Vegas was a lot smaller. Everything is bigger in Texas!"

I just received this post via email:

"I think moving the Tejano Convention to Dallas was a great decision, considering the majority of Tejanos live in Texas, which I believe made the convention a HUGE success. I think it's a great idea that the Convention gets moved around, than centralize in 1 location. It showed unity amongst Tejanos and other Latino genres, such as "Reggaeton, and "Norteño" who combined together and shared a weekend in a genre that is "supposedly dead". It was an honor and a privilege be have been a part of it. Can't wait for next year!! We need more Hispanic media coverage, for such Tejano events as this, in the DFW area.

Que Viva El Tejano! Aaajjuuuuaaa!!!"
