El Vocho Publishing Party Redux

Had a great publishing party for El Vocho at the Mercury Cafe in San Francisco last night. Here is an audio of our pick up band the DICK NIXON EXPERIENCE -- it was ragged fun, not so well rehearsed but damn we had a blast!
Recording compliments of Sir Dave Soule. Thanks to Scotty, bass, Jeff on drums, Jon on electric guitar, and Jeff 2 on fiddle and alto sax. That's me on vocals and acoustic guitar.

El Vocho in Portland, Oregon


I'm appearing at Reading Frenzy at 921 SW Oak Street in downtown Portland, Oregon on July 15th at 7 p.m. with my new graphic novel El Vocho.
I am really excited to be going back to Portland where I used to live.
I'll be playing my Oaxacabilly tunes with my good friend David Perkin on percussion. I just released one of my tunes today, Jack Black Song, on a web zine called This Zine Will Save Your Life.
