RE: The "Where is everyone from... (in reply to Matic)
Hey Matic, what happened to the horse? It's all very well using a picture of Gerardo struggling to keep up with you, but he's hiding your face anyway. I miss the horse.

you know how much RAM i had on my laptop when i first got it? 128 mb! i could have picked my nose, took a shower, did my laundry, ran naked in traffic, had lunch, saved the world, go food shopping come back and it would still be loading up. i've maxed out the RAM to 1gb and its pretty fast now. upgrading ram and defragging the computer does wonders for a computer.
do you have to install any software when you upgrade your processor? or do you just stick it and start it up like with ram?
ok, since you're using foro money for these new toys, and now you got a faster computer, you're obligated to upload more goodies! you can start with your whole flamenco collection. ..

Worrying, no?
it can actually break?! reminds of something i watched the other night. the main characters crash landed on an alien planet and the only human inhabitants were large, female amazonian women who had a strong disdain for men. they would punish the men by crushing their pelvises and thus kill them through "snoo snoo."
i wonder if these jamaican guys actually look forward to snoo snoo or maybe they're actually scared of it.

Wow, I'm only the 2nd American to chime in!
I am a proudly naturalized American. Born in Venice, Italy –not the California beach- and raised my own self in New York since the immature age of 23 years. I have spent the second half of my life in this country, which I love and felt as my home since first landing at JFK in 1986.

in the middle of countryside, not even in a village, but if you look at the big places on a map it's approx in between Cambridge and Norwich.... but i have lived other places....
Ok ..thats officially spooky. I am from a small village just outside Norwich also. Not only that but Guitarist and forum member Philip John Lee is also from just outside Norwich and one of the top Uk Guitarists Steve Homes is also ...from just outside Norwich. Is this the breeding ground of Flamenco in the UK?
RE: The "Where is everyone from... (in reply to Pimientito)
Aha, here's the Jerez connection:
"The Romans had their regional capital at Venta Icenorum on the River Tas to the south which is near modern-day Caistor St Edmund, about 5 miles to the south of Norwich. This fell into disuse around 450 AD, before the Anglo-Saxons settled on the site of the modern city, founding the towns of Northwic (from which Norwich gets its name), Westwic (at Norwich-over-the-Water) and the secondary settlement at Thorpe."

It also explains the Niña de la Peines classic "cuando tu pasas por Norwich"
Of course; not to mention "entre sábanas de Norfolk" and "déjame pasar, que voy a Norwich, que es mi morada..."
There are many other references made by great cantaores - if only you know how to hear them correctly. A few examples:
(tanguillos)
yo te juro mi Norwich que no te miento que aunque no estoy contigo te llevo siempre en el pensamiento
placita chica de Norwich la tierra de más salero nunca te falta alegría aunque no tengas dinero
(tangos)
si alguna vez vas a Norwich pasa por barrio Pimientito
(bulerias)
Norwich es una población que le gustaba, primita, al forastero aquí no se quiere lo serio aquí no camelamos el dinero
con el caray, caray, caray que mira que de cosas que pasan en Norwich que ni las hambres las vamos a sentir que mire usted qué gracia que tiene este país
(tientos)
de Norwich han venido varios pintores válgame Dios, Gertrudis cuando yo te llamo ¿por qué tú no acudes? a pintar a la Virgen de los Dolores
(siguiriyas)
hospitalito de Norwich a mano derecha allí tenía la madrecita de mi alma la camita hecha
(alegrias)
quien te ha robaíto a ti el color que estás tan descolorida un gitanito de Norwich con palabras y fantasías

Was a bit saddened not to hear a mention of the East Anglia Model Railway Enthusiast's club though....
Sorry Ron, but I didn't want to get too esoteric!
But you remind me of other classics like the Tanguillos del Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Light Railway, because of course the tradition of English Flamenco is not limited to the Norwich-Cambridge-Ipswich "Triangle" as some zealots would have us believe. And further afield there are my particular favourites (mi herencia) the cantes sidreros and wurzelianas.
