Spice Girls Spanish Style

A couple weekends ago, in the Barrio Santa Cruz, there was this "concert" of people lip-syncing famous songs. Some were techno (with little to no words) some were Spanish, and some were English.

One of the English ones was The Spice Girls. There were 4 above-the-age-of-forty women dressed as the famous group, along with a mannequin, lip-syncing the hit "Wannabe."

It was weird but very entertaining, as you could probably guess.

Want to view it? Well you can! Right here.

Fifth Radio Broadcast!

This one is about the previous weekend's two big holidays: Carnaval and Valentine's Day.



The song is "Celebration" by Madonna. Of course.

Yesterday was the Entierro de la Sardina (Sardine burial) where they carry a giant paper mache sardine through the city to a plaza, then light it on fire with complete disregard to safety.

I filmed the entire "on fire" part, and it was quite entertaining.

They lit up sparklers and those screaming emergency flares, then lit the sardine on fire with them (of course, after they completely covered it in kerosene). The sparks were flying everywhere, on the crowd and the drag queens (there were lots of them there, I don't know why). There were also lots of people dressed in black, as if it were a mock funeral.

Enjoy this interesting spectacle, courtesy of my video (I made it low quality so it was faster to upload...pardon the blur):
