You are absolutely right. It's a bad choice. "lo siento mucho .tio , pero asi es ..." jaja :)
But to my defense I have to say that I was thinking about the very beginners, people who cooul hear that and say "I can do that".
Please, give me a second chance. One of my favourite songs of all times is "La pajarraca" by Juan Manuel Cañizares, but it's very difficult even for an expert player. I think a good choice could be "Boabdil", by PepeHabichuela

Leñador: I agree, that could be funny

Dudnote: you are right. I'llcheck the thread "La juerga de foro flamenco". But unfortunately I can't help you by adding any guitar playing. Maybe I could buy a "cajon" some day and add some percussion ;)

Eso seria genial. O simplemente nudillos golpeando una mesa. ¿Cantas también?

whoa ,, you went from one end to the other ... you know there are are lot of really good players on here ... with albums definitely good enough to put out on your radio station ...( Now there is something of an idea for you ...)

but also of of course a lot of intermediate ..probably the majority ... some beginners ...and then there is me .. (ay por dios mio ..)

one of the problems with the challenges , and there have been quite a lot , is the differing levels ..sometimes they were arranged in groups of beginners , intermediate , advanced ..
I know that at least one here has a video of La Pajarraca out ....

(a mi , me gusta un montón el estilo de Pepe Habichuela, pero, bueno , que me va costa un huevo para tocar así))....
...
I always thought the best thing about these challenges was that we learned something good about playing flamenco and got good feedback from much better players that helps drag you up a bit .

probably best to just have a look around here and the videos that people have out first instead of jumping straight in to the organizing stuff end ...

Yeah, thanks. I'll check those albums, I'm pretty sure there will be many interesting players.

Is this the video you are mentioning?
;)
It's a very difficult song, so all my respect for this man :)

And yes, I'll check the videos.
Thank you, Kiko!
