FREEPER: Albuquerque rally of 45,000 was actually a Santana concert!

"Well,,I though you guys might like the "rest of the story" as Paul Harvey says. Obama's (Peace be upon him)event was held in the center of the University village. And the press keeps forgetting one little detail, it was a free concert featuring Carlos Santana. For my freeper friends across the country, he's still a massive celebrity out here with the Latino community. The crowd thinned *quickly* after the show. They werent waiting around for "the one"."

:rofl:

How sad it must be (for them).

And everybody knows only "Mexicans" listen to Santana.

lol

:rofl:

They can't even come up with any new excuses. :eyes:

But I don't know if he could sell 45,000 tickets these days?

BTW, why would Freepers be listening to a guy who sings about a "Black Magic Woman"?? Isn't that "Satanic"?? :evilgrin:

Uh, yeah, I think he could. I'm a little baffled at what part of the country doesn't appreciate Carlos Santana.

:P

Man, these people on the reich-wingnut-loony side of things really are completely divorced from reality, aren't they?

:shrug:

Where was Carlos Santana? :rofl:

Can I be a witness!! I didn't see Carlos Santana either. There was a rumor, but I think it got started by a possible leak that a Hispanic entertainer would be there. It turned out to be George Lopez, who was very funny. I checked the Santana website to see if it showed any concert having been at the UNM campus that day. All I found was that Santana was not on tour at this time, and I also checked "Gig" dates, and that too showed no performance by Santana anywhere that day. Although, Santana would have been better than the coffee house type band that played. I think the crowd was tired of hearing the "mix CD's" being played over and over again while we waited but, I for one was happy to hear that CD mix music again after that band. But...no one left the field until after Obama spoke, even though we were kept waiting for a long time. News reported 35,000 inside the rally, and 10 -15,000 around the outside. Sadly (not really), only 1500 showed up at McCain rally earlier in the day.

Somebody just made the Santana thing up. ;-)

Poor little freeptards...wonder what color the sky is in their world?

Hank Williams Jr., maybe???

Really?

WTF is up w/ that? I hope you're not also going to tell me The Dixie Chicks are voting for McPain.

Toby Keith come out in support of the Democrats ....

An old thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x6669573

According to this PDF from the Tennessean:

It's not like Im about to go buy his records or anything ....

Toby seems a bit mixed up ...

Not Toby. HWjr is even more a repulsive human than Toby.

:puke:

That they trotted out in Portland and Berlin, and....

Apparently, there was a college football game that drew the crowd that decided to stay for Obama. :eyes: Jealousy is SO dangerous for one's health. The rate of ulcers popping up in their Party must be alarming and I say that with compassion; these people need help.

Wait a minute...:think:

They never stop surprising me; their creativity knows no bounds.

YEP. ;-)

went over to it after Obama left.

I was at the rally, and I knew nothing about a Santana concert.

I don't know if it was Santa Ana or who. It looked very small. The Freepers said Santa Ana was there but to be honest I don't know who the band was.

...quite a difference! ;-)

Is that where the confusion comes from? Did some freeper confuse the guy from Santa Ana with Carlos Santana? :rofl:

I guess that means he had a seance!

:headbang:
rocknation

I think he only expected a small crowd because he reserved an area within the fairgrounds that is very small (Spanish Village), and is surrounded by buildings. I think he did this to make it look as though it was jammed with people - yaaa, like a whole 1,500! Wooo! We need crowd control here! Hillary had a rally in southern NM that morning and drew more people than McCain's Albuquerque rally (2,800).

Palin's Hankie Willie to ensure a good showing.

Delusional.

Well, dang. I didn't even hear "Oye Como Va" on the tape loop.

How could I have missed it?

BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!

Dang, they are delusional.

amazedly,

PRETENDING to be Carlos Santana. :rofl:

:rofl:

Wow, pathetic.

"You need to get this to Rush, Michelle Malkin, etc. ............. seriously. this exposes the fact that they do not live in a reality based world. I'm pretty sure Rush's team scans FR daily for interesting articles. He's referenced it enugh times. Any members to RL should sign in and send an email with a link to this page. I know I will. Any other radio talk shows. Sweetness and Light, Sistah Toljah, newsbusters.... "


OH GOD make it stop! :rofl:

:rofl:

that was for Kraftwerk.
:eyes:

:)

...Sarah Palin is a "Black Magic Woman."

I loves me some Wallace and Gromit. :)

They just finished filming on the newest short a couple weeks ago, and now it's in post production. It's called A Matter Of Loaf And Death. :rofl:

Apparently Santana also played in Denver and Ft. Collins. :rofl:

Links? :rofl: I really have to get to sleep!

"It was a (free) SANTANA CONCERT!!"

"My first reaction when I heard the numbers: "I wonder who was playing for free?"

Did BHO play the cowbell or the timbales? "

"Free concerts can be fun once you eventually get to the main attraction."

"Because it was a SANTANA CONCERT. That is why. Obama showed up at a concert Santana was putting on."

"Ben Harper Concert"

"So is Michell Obama a Black Magic women?"

Nice.

they will have a rude awakening on election night when Obama wipes the floor with McINSANE, bwahahahahaha! :rofl:

they left promptly after running out of ride tickets...
