Durham Latino Festival SATURDAY (9/24)
***
BREAKING: LOCATION CHANGE
Parks & Rec has announced on Friday that the festival will be MOVED INDOORS to Edison Johnson Recreation Center, 500 W. Murray Ave, due to rainy conditions at Rock Quarry Park.
****
Durham's Latino Festival, which was postponed back on August 6 due to Hurricane Irene, is rescheduled for this Saturday (9/24) from 1 - 6 pm, at Edison Johnson Recreation Center, 500 W. Murray Ave.
Band bookings have changed, so here's the latest schedule which I received today from Parks and Recreation officials:
SI: blankets, lawn chairs, kids
NO: coolers, booze, pets.
Guillo Carias Trio

I haven't seen them perform in ages, so I'm curious to see what singer/songwriter Fred Huerta, et al., is up to these days. Here's a neat little rehearsal video posted about a year ago:
La Realeza de la Sierra has kind of a technobanda style, and one member who appears to be a young girl playing keyboards, according to videos on YouTube. Here's their demo:
