In 2008, a flicker of that celebration could be seen in the eyes of the hundreds who packed City Hall—completely dismissing the Mix 92.9 mariachi band a few blocks down the road—to see something of a revolution themselves: Maya Arulpragasam, aka M.I.A. http://www.belmontvision.com/news/2008/05/07/mia-unites-music-fans-at-city-hall.964 http://www.belmontvision.com/news/2008/05/07/mia-unites-music-fans-at-city-hall.964 Wed, 07 May 2008 03:03:00 CDT Main News Feed MIA unites music fans at City Hall Prisi791@hotmail.com (Jeannette Ceja, Staff Writer) As this semester gets closer to an end there is still another chance to catch a very special event on campus.
