Someone over at Current TV saw my post about the Great Mexican Emo Wars of 2008 and forwarded over a link to a short film by Ioan Grillo looking at the Emo Culture in Mexico City and other parts of Mexico. Check that shit out. And any Mexican emos actually reading this, check out the homies Emery on tour in your country next week! Hopefully they won’t get beat up or stabbed on the metro or anything:

Emery Tour Dates:
07.29.08 - Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico - Hard Rock Cafe
07.30.08 - Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico - Cafe Iguanas
07.31.08 - Puebla, Puebla, Mexico - Centro de espectaculos
08.01.08 - Mexico City, Distrito Federal, Mexico - Hard Rock Live

Remember that one time I posted a video of a flying humanoid figure that a “leading Mexican UFO researcher” had proclaimed to totally, unquestionably “real”? Well apparently, if you listen to the version of the video without the creepy X-Files music, you can hear a woman looking through binoculars tell the assembled crowd that it’s just a bunch of balloons. I don’t know though, I’m still holding out for proof that it’s an alien on a jetpack or a Carlos Castaneda-type Don Juan character on some gait of power shit…
