Last nights Damage Control and My Vacation in Cancun So Thowed

Man last night, like the computers at the station, my camera fucked up and I couldn’t get a focus with my auto-focus 2.0 megapixel old ass Fuji camera. Shit. Well, I kind of like the effect anyway - and Damage Control keeps moving so fast it sometimes is quite blurry, so below, there’s some photos from last nights Damage Control – my radio show that happens every Wednesday night from midnight till 3 a.m. central on 90.1 FM in Houston, 89.5 FM in Galveston and www.kpft.org for the blogosphere and beyond. The man Serg from Them Shrimp Huslahs recorded the show once again last night, so here it tis. Please just DL and listen, don’t try to stream it. I don’t even know if it’s possible, just don’t try. Don’t weigh me down maaaaaaaaan.

Click herrrrrrr for the realness. 3 hour mp3


This girl came with Bunny B of Da Entourage from Louisiana and showed us how you are supposed to dance to his new single “Pop It and Drop It.” Thanks Bunny…


Bunny B and his crew, the twins and the girl next to them, rap.

I learned long ago that I shouldn't write while drunk and well, I you know, still feel that way. But I wrote the shit below on my Sidekick while sitting in the lobby of the hotel way stayed at in Cancun, and well, let's just say I was faded. I wandered around drunk till like 3 a.m. that night looking for the realness. Didn't quite find it. Saw a lot of this guy tho....



It’s fucking hard to be a progressive in lunatic land. Not that most progressives aren’t lunatics, they most certainly are. But when you come to a place like Cancun, and stay in an all inclusive hotel filled with ragge Eurotrashpeans who should have been born American and Americans who should have been banished to Padded Cell, PA a long time ago, it’s hard to feel like you could ever fit into any scenario.

That’s nothing new for me, but this is. My friend Jasper and I had a conversation some time ago about resort vacations vs. educational ventures. See myself, I prefer to spend every second of every day attempting to learn something new. Something interesting. And that includes my vacation days, because even on this all inclusive, fucking alcohol soaked excursion, I am trying to find the music. Not the cumbias (necessarily), not the boleros, but the newest of the new in Mexican music. And here I sit in a hotel bar, smoking a Cuban cigarette (the cigars are for the balcony later) sucking down all-inclusive margaritas, thinking to myself “Didn’t I promise myself never to do this?”



I mean here I am in another country, sitting on my ass in a hotel lobby. Like the touristas I love to hate.

Wasn’t I the one saying a few years back that a true trip for me was cohabitating with THE PEOPLE for as much or as little time as I had? I guess I’ve done that just about enough in my past few years with Murder Dog. Cancun is worlds away from Gary, Indiana, but I bet if I searched, I’d find some serious Gary-ish shit. But no, on these few days I’ve got away from home, looks like I’m gonna sit on my ass and maybe ride a few waves. Without a board.


the waves were off the chain…

Shit, but I’m kind of feeling this resort shit in a way. $400 a piece and we got flights, bus transpo, a fat room with bad satellite TV, all you can eat and all the Dos Equis and cheap liquor you can drink.

I’m told that Guillermo Guitterez, the wonderful Cuban violinist, is living here in Senor Frogville and is playing regularly at a hotel called Coral Ocean or some shit. Somewhere, amidst the cheese, lies a true legend. Somewhere amidst the white girls with bad braids, lies a legend. If you’ve ever been to the Caribbean you know what I’m talking about.



But for now I’m content with grooving to the sounds of the Gran Caribe Real house band. A surprisingly full sounding quartet featuring a keyboard player called Carlos who plays bass (on the keys) with one hand, and well, keys with the other. Next to him is a lackadaisical percussionist who makes up for what he lacks in emotion with straight skill (he plays in a hotel lobby, how emotional can he get ferchrissakes?), and another percussionist who’s solo’s make their cover songs sound meaty and right.

And the band is fronted by a vocalist who looks a little like the second coming of Selena and got more than a few husbands in trouble for falling into her trance. Oh how she’d shimmy.


there wasn’t shit on tv

For me, being at this resort is like being at a zoo. You get to watch animals in an unnatural habitat, made to look oh so real. But it’s not real, it’s a fantasy land. A $100 a day fantasy land drenched in alcohol and spiced with Cuban cigars. I don’t even smoke cigars, but with a long middle finger up to Uncle Sam, I am tonight. And a Cuban cigarette and some Cuban brandy. I’ma just put a few pesos in Castro’s pocket while I’m down here. Why not?

Fuck it, I even bought a ready made Cuban brandy and cola at the convenience store across the street.


europeans know what’s up…

Next time we make the trip, we’re gonna have to roll to Cuba. Of course there is where some of the most dynamic music the world over is made (Viva Communismo! – oppression and education breed great art and well, Cuba has both). But these cigars really do kick burro.

Honestly I couldn’t give a fuck about cigars, but these mugs go hard. I smoke weed pretty much everyday, and like I said, never really cared about cigars, but these mugs are taking me where I want to be.



This is my first real vacation in years. Most of my trips are financed by magazines, and I always have at least one thing that I have to get done. Here I don’t have to do anything but jump in some waves and drink world record amounts of alcohol, walk the streets, laugh heartily at mi fellow gringos and sleep. And I love to do all of those things.


you can do this sort of thing at the gran caribe real

I keep thinking about what Ice Cube said on the classic “I Ain’t the One.” “Sometimes I used to wonder, how the hell a ugly dude get a fine girls numba.” Plenty of ugly dudes are getting juiced for their duckets here. Fantastic entertainment. Good night.


night night dinner’s over…
