Cafayate - still no sleep

What a terrible night. What is wrong with these people?! They somehow always seem to come with something worse, upping the ante but all-night concerts up the road from the campsite is taking things a bit too far. What next? Earthquakes?
It's getting to the point where I think: "shall we wild camp or rough it at a campsite?"
For eats we wanted to buy some food at the campsite. There was a sign advertising empanadas and pizza. We saw some people putting empanadas into an oven. We asked whether we could have some and they said no. We were mystified because right next to them was a board advertising empanadas with the price. We asked after something to drink and theyncarelessly pointed us to another building. Inside was a shop where we bought drinks and asked after food. She sent us back to where the oven was.
We stood by the oven watching them putting empanadas we couldn't have into the oven. No one came to ask us whether we wanted something else.
In the end we took a more direct approach and asked whether we could have pizza instead. There we got a yes so we had finally managed to secure food. These Argentinians are hard work.
In the evening we began to hear soundchecks. Another sleepless night, then. This time, we'll be up and dressed before it stops, no doubt.
