About

Banda el Recodo -- the group's full name is Banda Sinaloense el Recodo de Don Cruz Lizarraga -- celebrated their 75th anniversary in 2013, and the Mexican Banda group hasn't shown any signs of slowing down. During the landmark year, the ever-evolving band -- believed to be the first Banda act to release a commercial recording -- was awarded with the Musical Legacy Award at the Billboard Mexican Music Awards. 

 

Banda el Recodo was founded by clarinetist Cruz Lizarraga in 1938, and he remained the bandleader until he died of cancer in 1995. The group is still in the Lizarraga family, however, and counts four of his sons among its members. Banda el Recodo still tours regularly -- often playing in the United States -- with a huge lineup of musicians playing clarinets, trombones, trumpets, tuba, and various percussion instruments, along with vocalists. Fans who buy tickets to a Banda el Recodo concert can expect a wide range of styles representing the massive swaths of musical ground -- including Latin, big band, jazz and classical -- they've covered over their hundreds of recordings.

    Unfriendly

    by Mas on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    Un-organized event staff , never was told where meet and great was at or taking place, I asked security and was ignored told rudely don’t know after asking three times. I asked to talk to their supervisor and told why and finally that they didn’t have any. Bought vip tickets and people where let in the section with out wrist bands especially when main act went on stage, felt like I was in the general admission section. One of the acts called out just half a day out before the concert. Guess this is the entertainment industry of today .

    Great concert horrible venue

    by Daisy on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    The concert was great once we were able to get in after being in line for 4 hours. We missed half of the show due to the lines. The convention center was not prepared with all the people that attended. There was not enough security or police officers.

    Promoter was unprepared

    by Favian on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    I’ve been to a few concerts at the convention center and have never had this issue. It feels like the promoter was unprepared for this event. Security was under staffed and it appears that the event was over sold. It was the longest line I had ever seen for a concert and we were in line for hours without getting in. There are videos all over Instagram and TikTok showing how poorly this event was handled.

    Horrible Venue

    by Miguel on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    This was the worst managed event I’ve ever attended. There were no staff/signage to direct where to go. The line was extremely long & people were cutting & just overall crowded. We ended up leaving after waiting in line for 3 1/2 hours. Waste of time & money

    Horrible! Horrible!

    by 49ers88 on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    Horrible experience event was not organized very well. I was not able to see the concert due to Gate getting closed. Fan’s were forcing themselves to enter not enough security. People were fighting and super drunk. Currently waiting for a refund.

    The actual concert was great but getting in was horrible.

    by Rosie Hernandez on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    The actual concert was great but getting in was horrible. I don't understand why we were made to wait THREE hours in a huge line to get in. Everyone in line had a ticket, why was the event not staffed to accommodate a sold out show? Apparently after three hours, security could not contain the crowd and that's when my family and I finally got in. To my surprise, the event inside was not full. I thought it would be crowded having been in line for 3 hours with so many people. By the time we got in, we were only able to enjoy the last 2 acts and missed all the beginning acts.

    Horrible security and event planning

    by Lily on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    The lines were 4 hours long. Only one door to get in . Not enough security. When we finally got inside, they closed the doors and stopped letting ppl inside. A performer didn’t sing until midnight . Never again

    Oversold/ crowded

    by Alba on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    The tickets were oversold. It took us about 3 hrs in line before we got inside. By the time we were inside the show was almost over. 30 mins in line to use the bathroom inside. Ridiculous

    i had fun!!

    by on 5/16/23San Jose McEnery Convention Center - San Jose

    couple of fights and room for improvement with a smaller sectioned fan zone. i think it being so large led to breaking it down and all the fights. a lotttt of people but i truly didn’t feel it to be so unsafe or chaotic where i was standing.
