Meet Carlos

My sombrero - let's call him Carlos - has been transformed into a character of its own.

Carlos is a music nut, counting Santana and Jimi Hendrix among his favourites. He has a huge crush on J.Lo and was absolutely bummed when she got married to that dancer dude the first time and was even more miserable when she married the very un-Roman Marc Anthony. He's sworn to give up on her if she gets married one more time. After all, there's always Shakira.

Carlos enjoys a good scrub every now and then, accompanied with a refreshing glass of Sangria. He hated the movie La Bamba, even though he knows the lyrics by heart. His passion for rock music means he'll never join a Mariachi band.

His best friend is Monkey Boy, who doesn't actually have a name, so he's just called Monkey Boy. Monkey Boy always has a banana in his hand and his cheerful disposition complements the angst in Carlos. Together, they intend to bring Mexican Rock to the world.
