Mariachis


January 2016 - Guadalajara Mexico  

The other night we went to the Mariachi bar, Epoca de Oro (meaning Golden Age) and had a wonderful time. We were the only gringos in the place.

These two photos we took the day before when we happened upon it and vowed we were coming back in the evening.







These two gentlemen were the main act and appeared to be father and son. Everything was in Spanish but we had a great time anyway.



I love that they performed this song, A Mi Manera, in Spanish accompanied by the mariachis. This is best Youtube version I could find.

It was Thursday night but that didn't stop whole families from coming out. At some tables there were three generations enjoying themselves.

  3. Strings in unison are so beautiful to hear. For a moment, I thought the guy with the white violin was playing a conch shell with strings. LOL

  5. Travel is best when you find something off the beaten path and not frequented by tourists. Being the only "gringos" is a sure sign you succeeded! haha. Looks like so much fun! Thanks for sharing at Song-ography.
