So how does a band take a break for close to 30 years and then make a comeback with a tour and brand new album?  Who knows.  I guess people really did like the 60s that much.  If you’re one of those 60s lovers, head down to La Zona Rosa on Sunday night for a set by Brazilian psych-rockers Os Mutantes.  Opening support will provided by Deleon.
