“Hey c’mon Tony, we wannna dance!” Sun setting on the back patio of Colin’s Cantina, someone calls out from one of the tables. Tony Jimenez is just finishing setting up the equipment and lights for his regular Thursday evening set. “O.K., ready” he says, and strums the first chord on his guitar.<\/p>\n
Definitely \u00b4un-plugged’, the mood is just right for hanging out with friends, watching the stars come out, maybe dancing with your honey. More people arrive as a waiter brings guacamole, chips, and mugs of beer frosted over with ice.<\/p>\n
\u00a8We are owners here. We love that we can just walk over to Colin\u00b4s.\u00a8 the lady tells me. She takes a seat as the song ends, even though her grand kids try to pull her back up for more dancing. Colin\u00b4s Cantina is by the entrance to the Princesa Resort, and is open to the public. \u00a8Wanna dance?\u00a8 she says, and nods her head towards the kids, \u00a8with them!\u00a8<\/p>\n
A slow country song from Tony saves me. Tony plays Thursdays at Colin\u00b4s, from 6pm until 8pm. On weekends you can find him playing and singing at Boobar on the Malecon with his group, The BooBoys.<\/p>\n
Colin\u00b4s Cantina really is the<\/em> local corner bar-restaurant. Serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, Colin\u00b4s is also the place to show up to watch the game, have a burger, and something cold on tap. They are open seven days a week, with Happy Hour from 4pm till 6pm.<\/p>\n Taking a bite of my shrimp taco, I look up to see the two grand daughters staring at me, arms crossed. At that very moment, Tony hits the first notes of \u00a8Brown Eyed Girl\u00a8.\u00a0Ah, who could say no.<\/p>\n Tony Jimenez sings and plays guitar Thursday nights from 6pm until 8pm at Colin\u00b4s Cantina, located at the entrance to the Princesa<\/a> de Penasco Resort.
