2008 HLSR Disappoints: WTFizzle?

This year, little Tejanos all over Houston will be tremendously disappointed to discover the “Tejano” lineup for this year’s Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

The proposed “Tejano Day” is featuring Duelo, one of the heavy hitters in the Norteño Light market. What’s wrong with that? Absolutely nothing. At this point, my thumbs are twittling around while I’m whistling….Ok. Enough of that. Duelo rawks, we know that already.

So its “Tejano Day,” eh? Who else is playing that day? I’ll tell you who. Los Horoscopos de Durango. HLSR, wtf? They’re not Tejano, even if they have a signed letter from our sorry excuse of a President saying so. Hopefully you won’t disappoint us next year, and put real tejano bands in your lineup.

If anyone attends the show while Los Horoscopos are playing, please tell us the crowd’s reaction, especially the white folks’ reaction to the music; I once read somewhere that “White people think that there’s a joke being told when that music is playing.”

The HLSR Committee is not responsible for booking the bands (is this a growing trend?  This has got to be the 3rd event I have heard of that doesn’t have control over booking bands).  However, if you wish to complain about the lineup, you may email this person:   Rosie.Flores@itc.hctx.net

Joke of the day: Which cartel bribed the event coordinator to allow Los Horoscoposs stagetime?

  1. Just pathetic…well thats one road trip I am not making this year…and I was really looking forward to the Houston Rodeo and seeing something different…but for that I can just stay here in Florida and catch the same garbage every other weekend…Blah! I think we need to find to go ahead and email Rosie and maybe once she prints all the emails out maybe they can fall into someone’s lap that cares about what is happening to the Tejano genre…just a shame…I dont know what else to say :(

  2. You know… i don’t really like Taco Hats…. but Taco Bras are growing on me!! :)

  3. hmm….perhaps i should file for a patent…..now that i see the interest in taco bras, i might consider investing. expect a public IPO by this summer. TACO BRAS CORP.

  4. taco panties?
