East L.A. Rep

Orale Gente, I know you're getting all dolled up to go on the prowl tonight, SO, keep your eyes and ears open (or at least take a lot of pictures to refer back ...to) and make sure you hold on to that good CHISME that will no doubt be part of tonight's shenanigans (is that even a real word?) and bring #TheHotChisme tomorrow Sunday, May 7 to #EastsideLuv for another round of #ChismeyQueso and you didn't hear it from me but I heard that Alexis de la Rocha is back from her "honeymoon" and that Melinna Bobadilla will be joining Eddie Vona at the bar. Doors open at 5pm so get there early to get your drink and your seat and get ready to do what these two dudes did last week - THEY LAUGHED - get your mind out of the gutter and into Eastside Luv Wine Bar y Queso.

"We should recall that the Black vernacular meaning of getting down or being down is counter to dominant understandings of down as sadness, dejection, and miser...y. Rather, to get down is a conscious exercise based in the belief that we are all spiritually connected to the earth, best exemplified by the soul in soul music performance. The Black expression of getting down or Brown people’s declaration of being downfor you, para la causaare expressions not of grief or defeat but of affirmation, connectedness, and awareness. The songs on this album remind us that Black and Brown peoples have always carried the knowledge to be down in struggle and the practice of getting down to cultivate joy in a world determined to keep them downtrodden. The Eternal Get Down is a sonic pedagogy for freedom in relation to the eternal. It is a lesson, to paraphrase Angela Davis, in what it means to fight the same battles over and over again because staying in the struggle teaches us to enlarge and expand what freedom means." -Deb Vargas (The Eternal Getdown liner notes).
