El Mariachi

I see mariachis like this walking around the Mission looking for gigs. It's a tough life but they make more money here than in Mexico and send it home to their families. There's a revealing film on two San Francisco mariachi's struggle to survive  called 'Romantico'- you can find it on Netflix
