Do you pronounce the shop's name Guad -ah-loo-pay or Guad - ah -LOOP?

I recently bought Guadalupe Strings for my uke and I LOVE them!

[0tono]

The first one. I know in some places (like in Austin, TX) I've heard the latter used often, but the "e" is pronounced.

Otono and Elliott, I really enjoyed your music!! As a gabacho, I love how mariachi has woven into the fabric of California life. Do you guys have a website?

Hey papaellio,you left out "Oh my God!". He likes to call out to God a lot. Can you imagine when the time comes that he crosses over to the other side? I hope Louie or Cameron are with him.

Yup they partied that night and Huell got all "Babalu" and landed up getting lost in the Maravilla projects. We found him knocked out the next day on the grass at Belvedere Park. I took him for a Menudo to help him out. Homeboy had a mean Cruda.
