Armando Nava's father was a sales person and wished to take his family to TIJUANA, Baja California, and as a salesman he used to travel a lot.〔Ankeny, Jason. "Los Dug Dug's: Artist Biography." ''Allmusic.'' http://www.allmusic.com/artist/los-dug-dugs-mn0001459070/biography〕 One day, after a year or so, ARMANDO wanted to go back to DURANGO and try to take the band "XIPPOS ROCK " to TIJUANA.
