My apologies

I know it's kind of late for this but I wanted to apologize about a certain foro member in the past who made hell on earth and insulted many members . It was someone who was trying to impersonate Ruben Diaz with another identity after he was banned. It's unfortunate and beyond belief that sometimes family means nothing and human beings can be such hypocrites and reach such a low level. Anyway, my apologies because I personally felt bad about the insults even though I do not know any of the members personally. Que viva el arte!

Ah-hah! So it was you?

Juan, what is there to feel sorry about? You didn't do anything, did you? From what I've seen, you pretty much mind your own business, and make us all envious, of course.

You are absolutely right that I am on the quiet side of things Norman. No, never in a trillion years would i do a thing. I have a distant relative that started going on a rage after Ruben Diaz was banned. I should not have started this because he comes on periodically. Oh well.

Thnx MD. Florian, I think you are right about not having to apologize but I think I'm either just too nice of a person or the "black sheep" of the family(which I highly doubt

)

No, I never played it but I did sight read it at one point in time I guess. Here I am playing Danza Guarani by Barrios which is not as popular as the one you mentioned. I think it's a pretty cool little piece. Danza Paraguaya is great though and might actually learn it. Here is a clip of me playing Danza Guarani. Guitar is a bit out of tune.

I am willing to accept your apology, but it is still vague what you are referring to exactly. I only remember there were a couple of individuals defending ruben that seemed to be either HIM or his people. Don't really remember anyone else "raising hell" as you say.

Ricardo, Like Florian said before, I should not really have to apologize for another person's immature behavior but thnx for accepting it. It was another person actually but it's not really worth it to waste energy on this stuff. Life is too short.

Look at this woman play "Danza Paraguaya". I think it's my favorite interpretation of this piece. I like the intro she does . Excellent player.

You seem to be interested in guitarra andina.

Do you know any websites with this kind of scores? I prefer to download, free or otherwise.

Hry JG ,

wow that was really different , and didnt it groove, and she is also pretty as well, dont have her number by any chance ?

she played a difficult piece really well.

mike years ago i spent 1000$$ at guitar solo publications, they have really cool stuff.

if you like the style , Barrios, jorge morel, Carlos barbosa lima, Garoto, antonio lauro.

are really good introduction to latin american guitar.

i d say there are some sites with scores haven't looked

Time to check the atlas, Mike.

Nice playing , jg. As everyone else says, you have no need to apologize and I don't know who you're referring to unless it was the guy who kept talking about "Ven te pa Madrid". Anyway, no worries, and keep the good stuff coming.

Just that Paraguay's not in the Andes, and música andina and música paraguaya are different things. Anyway, let's not get off topic.
