Comic relief

This must be seen to be believed. A friend posted this on another site and I just had to share. The music doesn't really float my boat but the video leaves nothing to be desired, other than whatever the director was smoking.

Enjoy!?

Aaron,

I'm surprised that as a famous guitar builder, you are such cynic.

Flamenco has to reach new heights if it is to evolve.

I have often been told this, so I know that it is true.

This is merely "underwater zorro Flamenco", which is hopefully a step in the right direction in order to keep this unique Art form relevant to a new and younger audience.

I think you are just stuck in your own old past and time zone quite frankly.

Shame on you.

cheers,

Ron

Ah tis true I fear....the soon to explode underwater Zorro flamenco will leave me in the dust much as Grunge buried Hair Metal. Till then I will tease my hair, proudly wear muscle shirts and ripped jeans and chase bubblegum snapping chicks named Lisa.

All kidding aside, I have a painful admission to make..... I was just trying to help bring this exciting new trend to a larger audience under the guise of scorn, since I don't have the cajones to stand up and proclaim "here it is....the future!"

As such I can't help but think the folks in this video, esp. the underwater pirate/frisbee playing middle aged pot bellied would be suitors....remind me of a Jimmy Buffet concert. And then there's the mysterious guitarist who I am fairly certain I have seen hocking guitars on the home buying network.

That was so awesome! I loved the last 2 minutes, especially the pirate bit. I laughed my butt off. Thanks for that!
