# Event Details - **Event Name**: The Rumba Madre + The Fun Police + Dirty Tribe at Spanish Ballroom - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 29 Aug, 2026 at 08:00 pm - **Event Description**: McMenamins Presents: The Rumba Madre The Fun Police Dirty Tribe August 29th, 2026 7:00PM Doors 8:00PM Show All Ages Event The Rumba Madre The Rumba Madre is a high-energy musical project that collides punk rock urgency with the soul of Latin and world traditions like mariachi, cumbia, or celtic music. Blazing horns, driving rhythms, and gritty guitars create a sound that’s both explosive and deeply rooted in storytelling. On stage, that energy becomes something else entirely. The Rumba Madre’s live shows are loud, chaotic, and electric—part concert, part cultural celebration—where crowd and band feed off each other in real time. Switching between English, Spanish, Basque, Galician, Portuguese and more, they deliver a raw, immersive experience that feels urgent, communal, and impossible to ignore. Think about Gogol Bordello and Manu Chao forming a band. That's what The Rumba Madre sounds like." The Fun Police Of late there's been a distinct lack of fun; we're here to rectify that problem. The songs sung by this fun force were composed of floating rivers, spelunking vacant mines, pub crawling sidewalks, and summoning a higher power in the presence of a campfire. Living in these modern times, one can always find constant reminders of the laws that protect us from danger, and also in some cases, fun. In that irony lies the birthplace of The Fun Police.
