Help......I'm being help captive by a large hairy....uh....ape-thing? He's not mistreating me and he can actually cook a mean stir fry, but he constantly wants me to play 'Rompeseros' for him and I'm getting tired of it. Okay so perhaps he's not all that bad but personal hygiene isn't his strong point and he leaves too much hair in the drain!!! Actually, come to thing of it, he DOES kind of look like Jose Merce.....hmmmmmm.....that would explain the hair........ ......HEY JOSE!!!! What the hell are you doing in the prairies???!?!?!?!?!?? No folks, I'm still around (hey Mike, how's it goin' eh?). I had just started a new job at a company that created a new department (for me) and life was just getting really complicated for a spell. I'm still here and I'm again playing after about a (regrettable) six month hiatus. Paco Peña is here next week with his group to put on a show and I'm again all fired up about flamenco. I eat breath and sleep the stuff, listen to it everyday all day (iPod Nano rules) at work. Now that the dust has settled, I'm sure to be here to be the foro's resident smart ass. Hey Mike, ToddK, Anders, where you boys at? - Jamey -

I saw Paco Pena a couple years back, and actually wrote a review here--unfortunately Ron deleted it! I second that he was subdued, although to me it wasn't a positive. It seemed more of a lack of stage presence to me. Anyways, I took a course with some Paco Pena students one time, and they all told me that he played extraordinarily loud. They both were laughing about it, they said you just can't believe how LOUD he plays. One of them was really good, and was a classical player as well. During the time we were in Sevilla, he got an injury to his hand where the fingernail was pulling away from the finger, causing him a lot of pain. It had happened before, and he said that Paco told him it happened to him quite a lot too. Apparently it was caused by playing so hard. OUCH! I think I'll just turn up the mic. I don't know how they amplified the guitar at the show I saw, but it sounded beautiful. It was some kind of wireless system I think.
