To: amihow; Mrs. Don-o
My son knelt with his bride at the feet of the Virgin at their wedding ...

The couple did this at a wedding my band played at recently. The young man was from Tijuana and was dressed in a full charro costume, including spurs.

We had a bit of a time convincing the "director of sacred music" at the Cathedral that we were playing "Catholic sacred music."

"It's Norteno Conjunto Catholic sacred music!" I sent him the lyrics.

How lovely to hear.

For the groom to do that was unheard of 15 years ago.

Now happening all the way throughout southern Sonora to Tijuana.

P.S. How about a taste of the lyrics here? Were you matiachi? We are used to Mariachi masses on the borders.
