Can't wait for Ojos de Brujo! Too bad I missed Ozomatli. I really wanted to go!

ODB has been one of my favorite acts the past several years... and they were GREAT. Two sets, a 20 minute break, a very solid crowd, lots of dancing and a generally awesome atmosphere - even one woman who decided to take it upon her (apparently well liquored up) self to wade into the water... which prompted a break. ODB was great about that, and the public announcer said his piece and the band came back for a couple more.
There's a lot of extremely cool music coming up - and this is turning out to be one of the best LA music venues... and hey - guess what... it's not anywhere near Hollywood!!!
