Poncho -thanks for posting the Route 66 Summerfest info. for July 20th, 2013. My wife and I just visited both Albuquerque and Santa Fe and experienced the quiet and friendliness of those two New Mexico cities. Both have a lot to offer and enjoy. We'll definitely be back to both and I hope I can visit Albuquerque for the Route 66 Summerfest. My work will determine that.
We were surprised by the helpful young man downtown who offered to pay for our parking meter on 6th St. near Gold. Wow, we said thanks but we'll get it. There were some loud types down on Central near the Library Bar and Grill but hey, I've been loud before. That's not a crime. We were impressed by both Albuquerque and Santa Fe, both the cities and their people.

Entertainment at the Alvarado - a great reason to miss the bus!
ABQ RIDE has proudly offered public transportation to its citizens from the 1880s, first using horse-drawn wagons with benches, moving to horse-drawn streetcars on rails between Old Town and what is known today as Downtown, through today's modern buses and paratransit vans.
The Alvarado Transportation Center (ATC) was built atop the original Alvarado Hotel, incorporating graceful Territorial-style architecture, as well as the culture and history of the beautiful city of Albuquerque. Today, ABQ RIDE still aims to enhance the transit experience for its 13 million+ passengers and visitors who annually pass through the ATC. The Entertainment at the Alvarado series offers a variety of events at the ATC and created a hub of entertainment, culture, art and history in the heart of historic Downtown.

Different kind of lineup to what I am used to seeing at this event but it should still be good!
