big band jazz in leon


This weekend Andrea and I went to Leon to visit Heather, and Saturday night there was a public commemmoration of a student massacre that happened back in the 1950s...4 students who were protesting the Somoza government were killed.

Anyway, what you see at left is my first encounter with live big band music in Nicaragua, part of the commemmoration activities. This band was really good, and it made me miss all the live music opportunities in Texas.
