Flamenco in Malaga and Granada

My sister is down in Malaga and will pass Granada as well. She's very much into flamenco (has been dancing flamenco for years). She asked me if I knew where she can catch some good flamenco. I don't know anything! I've still to get down to andalucia myself. :-)

Do you have any tips for her?
Kate + local Granada foro folk, do you have any tips for granada. Things that are happening this week or the next?

She's only down for a short vacation, but I know she'd be very happy if she could catch some 'not too touristified' flamenco while she's there.

Right now there is the festival at the Coral de Carbon, some amazing singers and dancers to be seen there, a different show happening every night. For a good juerga with the locals go to the Bulería in the Sacromonte anytime after midnight. A few foro members were there last night till 5 in the morning playing with Juan habichuela nieto. Send me a PM and will give you our contact details to meet up, there is still a gang of foro members hanging out here. So much happening I cant keep up

Here's the full schedule

Much easier to get a bus from Malaga, they go on the hour every hour and very cheap 12 euros I think. Trains are far and few between.
