Joe “King” Carrasco, who’s still holding court in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, at his restaurant Nacho Daddy, used to put on the finest Tex-Mex trash rock shows in Kansas City (and just about everywhere else).

Happy birthday Joe
So glad you’re still rockin’ it
South of the border

A JKC show
In KC town was always
An amazing thing

First set: Joe and band
As excited as if it’s
Their first gig ever

Second set: All out
Playing as if it could be
Their last gig ever

Nuevo Wavo
Can’t get mas caliente
That’s why Joe’s still King
