Mambo in the Park
Today I went to see a free Latin jazz concert at Yerba Buena Gardens in downtown San Franscisco. The headliner was Arturo O'Farrill and the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra, a Grammy award-winning big band from New York City. I took this pic during the encore, when a bunch of audience members (myself included) went up to the stage to dance the mambo. They were joined by two guest artists, local musicians Jackie Rago (in the red pants playing the guiro) and John Santos (in the hat, playing the bongos).
Probably one of the highlights of the concert was a Mingus-inspired piece entitled "Trump Fuck Trump", which O'Farrill introduced by ranting about the AHCA and getting the audience to chant "Fuck Trump" with him. Yep, only in San Francisco.
