Back by Popular Demand:

JADE ESTEBAN ESTRADA

at Sublime Dive Bar 1606 South Staples, Corpus Christi Texas.

A stage flooded by green outdoor lights, Poster Girls stretched across the Bar Walls, Moody blues pool bar minus the smoke caused by the ban… 8pm doors open to a stage transformed in…to hijinx with hysteria.
