PLAY SOME PUNTA!



On Wednesday, I played for an 8th Grade graduation at the Virgil Middle School on Vermont Avenue. Former middle school of Marilyn Monroe. Today it's 99% Latino.

I thought I was prepared. I had commercial hip-hop, reggaeton, merengue, and salsa. But that wasn't enough.

2 by 2, little girls were coming up to me, begging me to play punta. I had no punta. I only heard it mentioned to me once around 8 months ago, and never heard about it again.

It's weird being a grown ass man, having 8th graders yell at you.

Anyway for my first post, some punta.
