Garibaldi Blast

 

"Garibaldi Blast" ~ Mexico City (c) 2011 Skip Hunt

 

 

Last night after hanging out in the park near the Palacio Bellas Artes, I was headed back to my room to call it a day and slip into the strange dreamtime that always colors my slumber in Mexico City.

As I crossed the boulevard Lazaro Cardenas, I noticed some bright purple neon down a bit and remembered it must be the famous mariachi Plaza Garibaldi.

I still had a little battery power and wanted to try some dirty and noisy night street photography.

I noticed the familiar ornate but macho mariachi outfits out in the street like men of the night searching for their next musical trick.

The plaza was absolutely on fire with intoxicating life, love, music, dance & color. I'd been there in the past but never as late as midnight... the magic hour!

Listen to what it sounded like HERE
