WHERE ELSE CAN YOU GET CONJUNTO SERENADE FOR BREAKFAST?

(Ed.'s Note: In what has become a local tradition, wandering musicians belt out norteño tunes while restaurant customers chew on their huevos rancheros, divorciados, machacado, or motuleños, and even oatmeal with canela for the health-minded diners guardando la linea. In the photo above, they are at Las Dos Minervas, previously known as El Pedregal, across Adams Street from Las Cazuelitas. They also perform at Ricardo's, Arados, Tina's, and other eateries downtown and count on the generosity of the patrons. 
Visitors from norther states are often surprised to see then nonteño-clad musicians walk in the door and start playing walking around the tables. These musicians depend on the generosity of the customers. Where else can you enjoy local music while you chew on a torilla de harina con barbacoa a la mexicana con frijoles refritos

And if you run into them on the street, they wll be only too glad to belt out a few canciones for appreciative listeners. Where else can you enjoy local music while you chew on a torilla de harina con barbacoa a la mexicana con frijoles refritos
Only in Browntown!

I hope these musicians are good in their trade. A long time ago I was at Sylvia's when this lady came in with her guitar and began singing. She sounded terrible. At the time I had a headache so I went up to her and paid her to stop singing. She was bad.

I dont think this is a good thing. Most people prefer a peaceful environment when they are eating. I understand these folks need to make a living, but theres a time and place.

Nothing sporty about that bar. Nothing shouts out Sportsman about it.

la catorce is limited on funds so some of them don't go there, 20 bucks a song is kinda costly not that they don't deserve it, THEY DO, but... los borrachos would rather spent it on botellas. they sound better than a juke box but.....

The days of Araguez and his bajo sexto partner belting out a song at la tejanita for three bucks a song ARE OVER. These guys priced themselves out of reach. DAMN YOU JOE BIDEN.
