The Congressman will not attend

Via Babalu, here’s a statement from Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart opposing the Obama Administration’s decision to allow “the Castro regime representatives ‘Van Van’ to perform in the United States” starting with concerts this week in Key West and Miami. He also called the band the “group of musicians known as ‘Van Van.’”

Personally, I prefer the orchestra known as Aragon, pre-’59 of course.

Mambi Watch has more on Miami and the band in question, then (1999) and now.
