JC, abrazos mi hermano !
I,m glad you're coming down to Miami.Let me know so we can hang,I've been playing with Miguel Cruz some,other than that is quiet here,you know the Miami scene.I attended the Mongo tribute in NYC in Dec. 2003.I was one of the speakers along with Marty Sheller and Valery Capers.Ray Barretto and Candido showed up but they didn't play,they were paying their respect.Ileanita,Mongo's youngest,put on quite a show with a tune she wrote "Para Papa".Mongo's old band mates were there and played,Victor Venegas,Bobby Porcelli,Sonny Fortune,Ray Vega.....Oye, let me know when you come down.Ache pa' ti,acere. Dario :)
