As far as the B-Side opening up for everybody goes, I'm not sure, I guess
it's part of paying dues. But they have been opening up for some top names
in Latin, funk and jazz. Sheila E, War (coming up in December), Spearhead,
and in January they'll be opening for Tito Puente and Poncho Sanchez at the
new 4th & B venue in downtown San Diego (what an original name, huh?). And
a weekly thing may happen soon, although with 10 people in the band that
kind of organization can be difficult, I would think. Sorry if this doesn't
mean anything to all you folks in far away places.
