I think maybe Irish Flamenco?

Welsh Flamenco would be maybe "Meredith de Morgan"
Or..Scottish Flamenco "Malcolm de Maria" (the "i" pronouced like "i" in "hike")

It probably doesn't really seem that much of a difference to those in the US....
But I believe that it is these little things that the folk in Andalucia pick up in our playing....
Those little things we make assumptions about but are not quite accurate...
That's the difference IMO of being brought up in a culture...and learning about it in later life.

Ron,
I'd love to visit Scotland, but you have to understand that people around here don't really know the difference. It's all "Should Auld Acquaintance" to us!
