Took this this past Saturday. And within minutes of starting it, a guy asked me if I was from tshirtslayer! Didn't catch the guy's name (and I still can't when he says it in the video), but I'm sure he'll see this, so hello!

Another great video, man; El Chopo, reign of the bootleg of everything ; I still remember the funny Obama/Maiden shirt in your previous report.
mexicanuck on
Yep, I remember that one! Actually, I was looking for a particular, Mexican-themed Iron Maiden shirt at El Chopo that I saw when they were here in September, but not only did I not see it, I didn't see ANY of the Mexican-themed ones they were selling at the show. Same goes for any other bands. There are thousands left from every show that comes through here, and I have no idea where they all go. You'd think El Chopo would be the place.
Antonio on
Following your advice, I tried to find it on El Chopo web site or via Ebay, but did'nt find anything like that shirt.
mexicanuck on
Ha, I didn't even know they had a website!

I see a roadtrip to Mexico City in my future, good thing I'm closer than most and in Florida!

El Chopo should be the second reason to visit here, first being the food!

These videos are always enjoyable, keep them up.
And the dude said his username is OldSchoolBear
mexicanuck on
Ahhh, you're right. It sounds like OldSchoolBeer!
mexicanuck on
Yeah!

Awesome video! I wish there was something like this where I live. As soon as I saw you I was like " that's James Hetfield", you look like his long lost twin LOL. I bet you get heaps of people commenting that you look exactly like him.
mexicanuck on
Yeah, I get that comment A LOT. I think the first time was in 1986 (I had long hair), but it's been even more in the last few years or so. The best one was about a year ago. I was in a little Chinese restaurant and a girl that worked there told me I looked like him, and asked if she could have a picture with me. The very next day I was at a record store (buying Black Sabbath's 13, I remember), and some guy came up to me and said the same thing, and it turned out that it was his girlfriend at the Chinese place the day before, and he recognized me from her picture on Facebook!
Thrashmaniacfelipe on
Great tour, bro! You should've told me that you came over! It's funny that you ran into Oldschoolbear lol
mexicanuck on
Gah, you're right, I didn't even think of it! Next time! Every time I go, there's always at least one shirt I want that they don't have in my size, so I always want to go back and get it the next time (Twisted Sister and Sacrifice this time) How often do you go?
Satan's Finest on
I see SO many shirts I want. Enjoyed the hell playing in the background too!
mexicanuck on
Haha, it can get difficult to hear anything. There are sometimes like five or six different stands within a few metres of each other, and all playing different music. Ah, and something else that's cool about El Chopo is that they have a stage and different bands (local) play there each week.
Bayernpirat on
I wish I would have the chance to visit El Chopo
mexicanuck on
It's a great place!
Metal Militia on
Thank you for posting this video, i never heard of this Metal market, and it's insane the quantity of merch they have in there, i would go bankrupt in a heartbeat ahahah
Next time you go there, please film a bit more the patches, i bet there's great patches all over that place. :)
Cheers!
mexicanuck on
Ahhh, I actually almost went there two weeks ago, but something came up and I couldn't make it. I'll try to keep your request in mind next time I'm there!
Metal Militia on
Thanks mexicanuck :)
Cheers \m/

So this is where my The Eye shirt came from. looks like a cool place to be and spend all your money on stuff
mexicanuck on
Yep, fun place just to walk around, even if you don't buy anything.
