Jazzy and I finally got a chance to head out to the Music Under The Stars concert series at The Chamizal tonight to catch Subrosa Union in action. Subrosa Union has been touring for nine years and are now based out of Austin. These guys put on a great show and had the crowd, including my Jazzy, dancing to their funky reggae/latin style.

The crowd at the Chamizal seemed small at first, probably a direct result of the alcohol ban, but it quickly grew as the sun went down. I know many El Pasoans are upset about the alcohol ban but I am glad that the park decided to prohibit booze from their concerts. The city has plenty of events where you can drink and listen to music on any given night. If you absolutely have to throw one back you can head out to Speaking Rock and drink to your hearts delight.
If you missed this show tonight because of the alcohol ban, you missed catching a great and energetic band playing their tails off for a supportive El paso crowd. I encourage you to fill up your ice-chest with your favorite non-alcoholic beverage and head out to the Chamizal next Sunday. I really don't think you'll be disappointed.
