quote:
The other mostly unexplored avenue is a guitar orchestra that plays flamenco. But for some reason that idea seems to rub guitarists raw...hahaha. Though I imagine unless super precise it might sound like buzzing cidadas. Once every 17 years, when the soil eight inches below the surface reaches 64 degrees fahrenheit, a complete orchestra consisting of flamenco guitarists emerges from the ground, goes on a performance tour, mates, and expires after depositing eggs that turn into nymphs burrowing into the ground, where they will feast on roots, waiting for their debut 17 years hence. They appear to favor cypress, spruce, and palo escrito, though how they emerge holding fully-formed guitars (with golpeadors!) is, like black holes, strings, and other little-understood phenomena, the subject of much speculation and debate.
