Beck played in a Mexican Restaurant
"Last night Melanie and I went to Pancho Villa for the award-winning deliciousness. As you may know, it's not unusual for somebody to be standing in the back playing a guitar. However, the dude playing the guitar last night was Beck." [sfist & dennis yang]

"Beck plays with Le Tigre tonight at Bill Graham..."
...and at Chili's on Sunday.
How cool would it be if he put on a Hedwig-style coast-to-coast tour of mid-range Mexican restaurants?

drowned: being in NB (or NYC), doesnt really help you get to SF for such beckness?
in fact...being in NYC doesnt get you good burritos either. can we get an illegal pete's, or at least a qdoba? burritoville and chipotle just aint cuttin it.

at monday's show, people requested 'satan gave me a taco' and beck was like "okay i'll play a little bit" and he sang two lines of it and then stopped and laughed at himself and said "i played at a taqueria last night" -- no one knew what he was talking about. who woulda know, pancho villa!

drowned, to clarify, Beck played at Pancho Villa in San Francisco, not New York, although there is (or at least was) a Mexican restaurant by that name in New York, on 1st Ave.

Hey that's cool that Beck played in that Mexican restaurant. Maybe, when he's up here in Toronto opening for The Rolling Stones, he'll pop into a Tim Horton's(a Canadian coffee shop chain) and play a set. ;-)
