Attention Tejano Fans in the DFW area… you are invited to the DFW Tejano Music Coalition meeting on 4-30-2010

DFW fans, we know that Tejano is alive and well in the DFW area, but without a 24 hour Tejano station, the visibility is not what it used to be.  This organization is not just for the industry folks, as a fan you can become involved in promoting Tejano Music, so why not stop by Baby O  on Friday 4-30-2010 to see what the coalition is all about?

Any Tejano Tweeters out there?

I just started a Twitter page.  I’ve been hearing so much about Twitter on TV, so I thought I’d join.    I’m still trying to figure out how it works, and I don’t know how much I’ll use it,  so if you have a Twitter account you can follow me @ http://twitter.com/Gringz 
or just scroll down the sidebar of this blog to see my latest tweet, which may or may not make sense to you.
