Banda MS at the Forum

It was a spectacular Saturday night at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, CA. Banda MS, a Mexican band which was founded in 2003 in Mazatlán, Sinaloa. Twenty minutes before the show begun, a huge jumbotron counted down to sixty seconds. One minute left before the show and everyone had their cell phones out,  screaming and whistling at the top of their lungs.

Finally the fire works bursted in the air, singers brothers Alan Manuel Ramírez Salcido and Oswaldo Silvas Carreón along with 15 other band members graced the stage with great enthusiasm. A Mexican flag waving appeared on the jumbotron as Alan Ramirez sang hit love songs such as “Tu Perfume”, "Tu Postura" and “A La Mejor”. 

In addition songs like "Mi Olvido" and "La Casita” had the audience emotional and waving their arms from side to side. Men grabbing their women by the hand, up on their feet and reminiscing the night away. One of the highlights of the night was when they performed their hit song "Que Maldicion" and were joined onstage by an energetic Snoop Dogg impersonator who won the hearts on the crowd by the way he was grooving and walking on stage.

Since it was their 20th anniversary, many songs were sang from each of their 17 albums they released throughout the years. One memorable moment was when singer Oswaldo Silvas Carreón performed romantic ballad "El Color de Sus Ojos,” which had many women hugging their significant other. 

With so many hit songs under their belts and music awards to show for, there's no question that Banda MS is here to stay. There is perhaps no group that has been more successful at popularizing traditional, brass-based Mexican Banda music than Banda MS. If you really want to have a great time, Banda MS will definitely make your night unforgettable.
