U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner, who has been criticized for his aversion to holding town halls, was ambushed Wednesday by a mariachi band at what was supposed to be a small, members-only meeting with the Colorado Springs Chamber of Commerce and EDC at the Cheyenne Mountain Resort.
....................
Three organizations including two focusing on Latino issues were behind the musical interruption. Tuesday night, they paid $250 to register as Chamber members and brought six members of a mariachi band from Mexico City to play a love song and demand Gardner hold a public forum, said Hilda Nucete, a program director of Denver-based Conservation Colorado.
It was a gift, Nucete said, referring to the Spanish song Where Are You, My Heart? The song, she said, is about when the guy really messes up and youre trying to get back the girl, so were trying to get (Gardner) to fall in love with us again.
