Orquestra Tipica Fernandez Fierro, most miercoles at CAFF. They will knock your socks off. https://caff.ar/

Solo at Cabo Polonia. Yup, she is also a natural born hippie...

At the opposite end of the spectrum, we went to see Sofia Viola at Club Atletico Fernandez Fierro. Its one of those neighborhood community centers that are all over Buenos Aires, but this one has been a taken over as a venue for casual modern tango, and all kinds of related music, for a decade...

Bikini Kill from 1992. They loved this one in Villa Crespo.

Marilina Bertoldi, Recanati's bass player-

Normally, I dont go see North American or European bands when I am in Argentina. Partly thats because a lot of the bands that play here are big mainstream acts I am not that interested in, and partly because I figure I should spend my concert time and money seeing bands that are impossible to...

i am in the US right now, but I am planning on coming back.

For many years, there was a big wholesale fish market in Barracas. It ceased operations in 1983. The building is now a design center. What wholesale fish booths remain in business are at the big Central Market for produce. But they are far fewer in number and options...

Argentines dont like fish a lot- so most of the good stuff is exported. Not sure why someone would think Argentina doesnt export seafood. It does. For instance, there is a decent scallop harvest here, but scallops command a global price that makes them too expensive to be saleable in country. We...

you need to figure out what part of the cow they call "roast beef" where you come from, then go to a good carniceria. My current two favorites are Piaf, on Dorrego across from the Pulgas, and Converso, on Billinghurst and Lavalle. both are old fashioned full service guys who actually know meat...

He says a lot of things. But since he has no party, no team beyond the casta, no experience, and is unable to navigate governing, most of it is just talk. Here, for example, he calls Macri's term "savage populism"..

I have friends who cry whenever they pass certain buildings, because they are the locations where their friends and relatives were disappeared. I know one expat argentine who will not return, because there are so many spots like that in BA that she just cries for days. There is no "debate"...

I was merely pointing out that I have been an early adopter of tech for 50 years or so and that I am not afraid of new technology. (I am old enough to have known people with coal furnaces, and owned places with oil furnaces, so, to me, a heat pump, known here as a frio/calor, which heats and...

how can you say something is "on a par" when its customers get swindled and hacked regularly, and there is no recourse? I once had someone steal a check I wrote from my mailbox, change the amount, and cash it. My bank covered the entire amount, and free of charge changed my account to a new...

wait- the best solution is one that most sellers wont do, and that can change in value hourly? What happens when your "stable" coin arrives, and its worth less than when you sent it? Pretty chart right here- and its from the guys who LIKE crypto. https://www.binance.com/bg/square/post/1309573...

technology has nothing to do with the billions and billions of dollars "investors" have lost to crypto. The blockchain itself is tech. It is not responsible for any of the good old fashioned incompetency, theft, fraud, swindling, tax evasion, and Glengarry Glen Ross antics of criminals like SBF...

I can not think of a more appropriate industry to "burden" with regulation than crypto. It has been more prone to swindling, fraud, outright theft, and complete lack of regulation than pretty much any other financial sector. Its always refreshing to visit the last few days of massive losses to...

why would anyone but drug dealers and tax cheats object to this? There has been "mandatory registry" of banks for a century or more. Is it "liberal" to believe that you should obey the law? Does that mean being a criminal is "conservative"?
