I was intrigued enough to sit for this set by listening to samples of Ana speed-rapping in Spanish, and she delivered as much live on a couple of the tunes from this set.

Ana must have been cold, because she kept asking “where's the sun”, and then would move until she was standing in sunlight. I thought this bit of stage banter was kind of funny at the time: it was a bright and sunny SF day, and while it wasn't exactly hot, it was plenty warm for Golden Gate park … mid to upper 60's? Nice enough for me!

During the last tune, the sound guy must have pushed up the volume a bit because the bass became somewhat distorted. Maybe he thought it was necessary to get the crowd jumping? I dunno, I found it annoying to hear the speakers rattling.

All photos today by yours truly!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
