Electricity has been largely restored in San Juan. Schools, hotels, restuarants and many arts and music venues have reopened. (The rest of the island is another story.)

In this call with Jorge Andrés Ferreras, guitarist with the Puerto Rico-based band “Sr. Langosta”, Jazz on the Tube gets an update on conditions in the capital and what you can do to help (cutting to the chase: visit!)
