An Evening In The Community



 A strange , hypnotic shuffling Mexican dance troupe LostheUltramar took over the community this evening .
Drank beer and followed their odd Latino rhythms until it finally started to rain

  1. What strange headgear. I wish I could translate what's on them. What is the meaning of the faces on the back? Very odd! Bet that experience wasn't on your bucket list! xx

  2. I hope it didn't rain too much. Looks as though they might drown.

  4. They look fun. I wonder what those 'hats' started life as?

    1. They look like cut in half aluminum beer kegs.

  5. google says: "they represent a modern tribe, product of a globalized world, they wear dark suits, shoes in which you can see their toes and instead of headbands they wear on their heads an industrial aluminum protective shields."

  7. In the rain with those hats they feel must have felt like they had buckets their heads - and it looks like they really almost did.

  8. It looks very diverting, something definitely different.

  9. Don't think I would enjoy this part of the retreat but I could be convinced otherwise perhaps? :)

  10. I think that this is one of those acts which require an explanation at the beginning of the act. I am curious about the writing on those collars.

  11. My husband just said you should have asked the dancers to stand on a beach in a thunderstorm! I do apologise for his weirdness!
    Hope you're having a great time, and that Ruth's feeling settled. X

  12. The dance seems to be one you really have to surrender yourself to. Your visit is good in many different ways. Hope Ruth is finding some peace there.

  13. I feel a peace in your blog posts too John - I am sure it is helping you.

  14. Interesting! What do their hats say? Something about the body, death, and being "mestizo," I think?
