I do. They are so mobile and smiling! They are like a time machine embellished in gold braid. Years ago someone hired a mariachi band to follow them around on their birthday and ended up at my place, where it quickly became a giant impromptu neighborhood dance party. The magic of the mariachi brought a couple hundred strangers together and it was so human and so jubilant and so ridiculous. I'll never forget it.

I have a "thing" for mariachi bands

ahhh this is so cute!
Mariachi bands eh? I can see that. They have a kind of tender-absurd magic. But I don't think anything beats a marching band in procession. If we ever throw a party together, perhaps we could hire a *mariarching* band.
Hannah! You know we have to throw a party together now, just for an excuse to make tshirts emblazoned with the word Mariarching. Genius.
