I think we're going to need Antonio Banderas to solve this one! (But in all seriousness, I do love the Mexico trilogy)

I bet it was a bassist who is taking revenge on former band-mates that always said "TURN DOWN THE BASS"

Paul Simon, because he realises how good Graceland and The Rhythm of the Saints are! So good he has to kill!

Can't really see the funny side to people being murdered. I'm sure if it was a few NY or CA musicians attitudes would be all 50 thread page condolences. What's with the life value of a Mexican musician being less. We're not converting currency. Some posts on here are a little average.
