Bad news for the Space, though -- more police harassment, and now they've been temporarily shut down after two minors were found in the 500 concert-goers. Check out photos of the party that spilled out onto the street, in the fanciest commercial zone in Bogota, you'll have a better idea why. Throw in a little sexual harassment by the police, some screaming aunties of rich, young concert organizers, and lots of kids who rather die than throw their own beer cans away, and you're practically there! The martini and seven jeans crowd doesn't want a bunch of punks messing with their exclusive fun. Or maybe it was all those capes.

Medellin was great - no alarm clocks (you know how I feel about those, Slim), sweaty rivulets down our backs from just sitting still, lung-clogging air, streets that existed only to sell stinky fish, their eyes bulging from the heat, lots of aimless wandering punctuated by greasy and so delicious arepas, a mountaintop view from the comunas, friendly metro workers and warm people to match the warm weather in general, and dancing dancing dancing! And Craplations closed its doors in Medellin, so we actually (kind of) deserved the vacation we got.-------------
In latest too strange to not be true news from Bogota, "Colombia's chief prosecutor hired a psychic who hypnotized his staff and even performed an exorcism over a voodoo doll in exchange for a government paycheck and use of an armored car." Full article: "Hiring of Psychic Haunts Bogota Official."
