Silencio por Alegria

Ok, just a quick and reasonably sensible request (for a change)

I am bored to death of my silencio por Alegria which i have to churn out every week for a dance class. Its quite classical Em,Em,Em, Em to B, Then B, B , B , B to Em etc.
Goes round 3 times and ends in E major. I note most other players do something pretty similar to me. Can someone tab a couple of interesting variations or post a couple of recordings??
PS. The dancers will hate it if it is ultra avant garde and will ask me to do the original one again. This is the problem, they wont let me experiment very much. I need something tried and tested and is still flamenco!
Gracias

Here's one that I found to be a bit too advanced for me, but I may try it again in the future.

Here's an mp3 of the GP5 file. I never could get the GP5 file to work, but on that first thread there's a pdf file that has the notes.
