Haha, well I certainly try. I went to college with Ricardo Marlow and learned a chord or two there...Ricardo has pretty much been my inspiration since and the one that introduced me to flamenco. I just started studying with Rene Heredia again after a 10 year hiatus (making money to buy fancy cars)... so I guess I can bang out a couple chords and a falsetta or two :-)

Oo, you drive a lambo and play an A26? Life is complete man :)), or maybe its time to think about new combinations like Reyes & Bentley? lol Great pics - is there a way to get them in original size? I'd like to print a couple for my wall.

Well... if you have enough money for buying fancy cars... I would say mission acomplished... What else do one need? I would switch with you immidiately ....

haha, for sure. I tried to buy one of Ricardo's Condes, but missed the opportunity...then i coulda had an orange one :-) but that A26 is an 08 (as is the car), and I don't think they are doing that same orange lacquer anymore are they? at least I haven't seen any.

and yeah... I a'int winning lemans or anything in it, but I have historically had a lot of track time and worked my way toward that car through a built S4, M3, Audi Ur Quattro, and 996 Turbo... and have driven all of them pretty hard between track days, autocross and blasting around on road trips and such. So it's certainly not a garage queen anyway :-)

I'm sorry villain but that guitar is meaningless next to those cars

. Seriously, I'd rather have the cars. You could put up a Yamaha next to them and get the same response.

While owning nice things is certainly great, the maddening thing is that no amount of money will buy you a technique like Paco or Tomatito or..etc etc.

Certain things in life are just not for sale nor can be passed down to someone else in your will when you die.

cheers,

LOL...don't be sorry dude, that's exactly what those pics are == car and guitar porn. Difference is that that guitar is of the same caliber as those cars and all are some of the finest things in the world that bring an immense amount of enjoyment both to me and most people that see or hear them.
The skanky chick standing next to or draped over a modded import is like you said - kinda cheesy...unless you own the import I guess and are doing the skanky chick :-)
...and I am betting that is a combo you would be hard pressed to find photographed anywhere else. Skanky chicks on cars == everywhere :-)

Without question, certain things (and most things that are worthwhile) can only be obtained through hard work. I got all my toys through working extremely hard (and getting pretty lucky)...nothing has been handed to me or passed down.
I study both Flamenco and Kung Fu diligently, both have similarly challenging aspects that require nothing but dedication and practice to obtain. Those types of challenges are definitely the most rewarding...and as you state - also maddening :-)

yeah, its a 2008. pretty much all of them are e-gear at that point unless you special order the gated shifter. I had always had 6 speeds in my cars, but not too many cars out there with a robotic F1 style shifter system, so I figured I would try it...ultimately glad I did. The e-gear takes a little getting used to, but its pretty rad when you do.

no but you can buy private lessons with them and can buy more time to practice ....bassically in the playing department hes at the same level as us

HAA! only richer

thats almost like that comment ..its not the size is how you use it but ...if its big enough ..it wouldnt matter how u use it

...( i imagine

)

good on you villan, life is too short get what give you pleasure...whatever that is

if i was rich i would pay to have 2 extra fingers surgically attached on each hand...i just cant decide wich would be most usefull i am thinking another set of IM per hand...maybe if they get em from a dead guitarrist they would be exercised allready

...just cant figure out if the skill is in the brain or does it go with the fingers ? suposse id have to pay to open a research lab for them to studay that too
