At last the CAFA's 2008 milestone reunion show was done! The 120 seat venue was the site of 150 sold tickets. Needless to say, the place was jampacked. The performers had to give up any fancy idea of going down to the audience since chairs on the floor were back-to-back (in reality lang).

What I have are a few pictures to show you. We will let the forthcoming DVD speak for itself.

The other forthcoming pictures in the next 'send' are from the CAFA events during the reunion week. Sorry for the sparse description of happenings but I'm still groggy from last night's concert. I'm just gathering myself now for the despedida party at Rody's house in Bel Air in a few hours. At this point I would like to relay news from our
