I just got the album – Jefe de Jefes by the group Los Tigres del Norte. It’s a double CD full of narcocorridos which features the ubiquitous & beloved accordian, and has beats that have you grabbin for a cold cervesa. It’s fun music and is one of the backdrops to my experience here in Mexico.

Here's an article on the group:

Today – I think I’ll experiment with paper mache. All ya need is flour, water and newspaper - so its cheap entertainment.
