Hello from Chicago

I never know what to say in these intro posts, but I found this site while Googling a certain palo I was trying to learn more on. This site seems like a great resource! :)

Well it's not! LOL just kidding. Once you get the search function down its an amazing wealth of information, and my favorite part is all the opinions, very flamenco, no exact answer.

Bienvenidos!

That was the part that was hardest for an Anglo-Saxon like me to adjust to: ask five Spaniards the same question about Flamenco, and you get five different answers.

Ask me the same question about flamenco and you might get five (seemingly) different answers as well, depending on where we stand at that moment of time :-).

welcome to the foro.
