Hello my name is Javier R Avila I grew up in San Lorenzo for many years so seeing this images bring me back so many memories , I love your video thanks for getting it on, I loved it.
La cancha, de San Lorenzo is where I first danced my first banda dance song ever with my BEST girl cousin friend. Sadly enough, I never traveled there for the feria de agosto. Say hello to my tíos Díaz.

But we do have a few other Cities to look into. We will be in Guadalajara & San Pancho in Oct. Start from there. I have traveled quite a bit in Mx. Gunna watch your new vid today.....
From what I have known about the danza de los matlachines in Zacatecas is that they are prehispanic but have obviosuly been christianized due to the spaniards and the christianized tlaxcaltecas. The name matlachines has been given to these danzas because a spaniard said "they dance like matlachines" which matlachines is a traditional dance from spain. Those guys in the middle that wear masks are called 'los viejos de la danza' and they always mess around. My dad use to dance in these danzas back in the day.
Wow thank you for this. It helps clarify why I was seeing sources mention "matlachines" being from ancient Europe. It makes more sense now. Really interesting!
Hey my mom was from the City Bertha Ortega, but my grandma always called it a Rancho so I thought it was only a handful of families. Her name was Maria Rodriguez. I can’t remember the other families names that she told me about but nice to see this town.
Thanks for sharing this. Very interesting. Your family seems super nice. Some say that you "can never truly go back" to things or events that you did when you were younger. Nice to see that once in a while maybe you can. I wonder if the dance is a cultural holdover from the Zacatecos, Guachichiles, or Caxcanes? Nicely done !!!
Jenni estas hermosa!! Hace muchisimo tiempo no te veoo, espero veas mi comentario y ojala puedas pronto darte una vuelta por Aguascalientes. No se si me recuerdes te mando un abrazito saludos.
Hola Elvia, muchas gracias 😊 tenemos un par de videos que hicimos en Aguascalientes el año pasado, quedamos encantados con AGS ❤️ desafortunadamente no recuerde habernos conocido pero mi mami sí te conoce 😊
My dad's side of the family also comes from a rural town in Zacatecas so this video was really amazing for me to watch. I also really appreciated the history lesson, super informative. Thank you so much for this!
Wow 🤩 Jenny and Kevin! Se rallaron! 👏🏽 Thank you SO MUCH for creating such a beautiful video of La fiesta de San Lorenzo. It was incredibly accurate as I remember it minus the amount of people there. Antes estaba repleto de gente que llegaban en camionetas llenas y se llenada la pista y con la gente sentada a los alrededores. I love how you called el jardín “The Hot Spot for Dates” 🤣 It truly was known for that and if they saw you walking around with the opposite sex, rápido corría el chisme que ya te ibas a casar. Jaja The Matachines was always my favorite and most anticipated moment of the fiesta as they came down la ladera but I never knew their actual name let alone their history so thank you for filling that piece in for me. 🥳 I did also notice que la capilla looked different than what I remember so I’m glad to see they continue remodeling and expanding it. Three things that left a big smile on my face were seeing mi Abuelitos gate facing el jardín as you and you Mom walked by, la tienda de mi Tio Victor “Abarrotes Las Tres Flores” y por último, I could bet some money that it was mi prima Yessenia behind you during the fireworks. Once again Jenny and Kevin, thank you for this timeless gift. May the Universe gift you with well deserved rest time away from the cámara real soon. P.S. Kevin, you made that quesadilla look so bomb que me levanté y me hice una a la una de la mañana. Jaja ✌🏽
I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, Jules! It was really special for us and worth every bit of work it took. Thanks for your motivation and this beautiful comment. Thank for confirming which is your family's tiendita I was wondering! 😁 Ojalá en algún futuro nos podamos ver por allá en San Lorenzo 😊 mmm ya se nos antojó otra quesadilla 😋😋 that cheese though!
What an awesome video! Thank you so much for telling us about this important festival in your ancestral homeland. It looks like you come from great family in a beautiful town! I would love to attend La Feria! I did not realize that San Lorenzo was St. Lawrence in English. Since you lived in Chicago, you might be interested in these fun facts. The Fleuve Saint-Laurent (St Lawrence River) was one of the most important rivers in the European settlement of New France (which way back when included Illinois). Most of the shipping to Chicago would have come from the Atlantic, down the St. Lawrence and through the great lakes. Back to your video. You are really generous to share your family with us. I also appreciate that you provided background about matachines. It is amazing how many different cultures have adopted that fiddle sound.
This IS how rural Zacatecas parties! Wonderful snapshot of the festivities. My family is on the other side of the hills in Cd. Cuauhtemoc and the party is on a slightly larger scale, but all the vendors, bands, candies and religious observances are pretty much identical. Even the way people randomly show up with six packs is the same. LOL. So rad!
Muy bonito video . Lo que más me gusto fue el final. Gracias Kevin and Jenny por su hermoso video el cual me emociona ver lo que es mi tierra que me vio nacer.
That's so nice to have a close knit community to celebrate with. The dance kind of reminds me of the Danza De Los Diablos from Oaxaca. The dance also has some ties to the Spanish influence and depicts the battle between the Christians and the Moors. Also love the hat! I have a bolero hat in that same mustard, such a statement piece. Kevin needs a hat too.
Wow interesting similarity to Oaxaca! I sometimes feel like central and southern mexico are worlds away but the mestizaje will show up in similar ways! I love mustard-colored everything lol thanks! Yes, he needs a hat, and boots lol
It’s been the longest time since me, you, nena, & my mom have been in the rancho together for this!!! 💓 also (beware headphone users during the firework show‼️‼️)😁
I por k no comentas como trataron Al amigo TU tio Mario en Chicago El usvaldo I Rafa k mi papa lo dejava dormir en El basement por Ellos lo corria segun por borracho👉👉👉
