La Cucaracha

Driving home today, in front of the MacDonald's at North and Kedzie, was a full-piece, fully-dressed (re: spangles, sombreros) Mariachi band playing live, on the sidewalk, in this crazy-heat. And behind them, in the MacDonald's parking lot, the cops had a line of guys spread up against the fence as they searched cars. I call this little tableau "Summer in the City (part one)."

Perfect.

I once heard a mariachi band play Britney Spears "Toxic" once. Now THAT is summer in the city.
