The Wierdness Concert

I was in Perth for about 3 days and I just *have* to tell you guys about this completely wierd "concert". Anyway, I go there because an old friend of mine tells me to go over and listen to him play some Flamenco at a small concert. I've never heard him play anything not by Clapton before so sure, along I went. When I got there it was apparently at someone's home in Nedlands, and there were about 30 or so people cramped into one apartment. I have just set foot in the door when a total stranger proclaims I am about to do a German number. I protest, then my buddy tells me "just do one" and I said "I don't *know* any German music". "Damn. You can play the organ right?" (Him) "I wouldn't know it's been 18 years" (Me) "Nevermind, do the Flamenco strumming thing, use the A chord". (Him) Confused as I was, I did it. They went wild. I tried to play something. They insisted on doing "that chord" again. So on and on, for about ONE AND A HALF HOURS I played the A chord, A7, Asus2, and each time I made sure to do a Rasguedo. They loved it. They hated everything else I tried to play. Go figure.
