One last thing-he was asked how his nails hold up and he said he uses Quimica Alemana, which is a nail polish and hardener. It's on Amazon. I picked some up and it's a thick polish, so for those who don't like acrylic because it's too thick, this product is a great alternative in that is provides some strength and protection without the stiffness of acrylic.
For those who care about such things, just a heads up that Quimica Alemana contains formaldehyde which is carcinogenic.
Has someone warned Antonio about this? If not, shouldn't we?
I doubt that he would care, considering that all the cigarettes he smokes are a hundred times worse. Personally I don't really care, it doesn't seem to me that the very small amounts of formaldehyde absorbed by the fingernails are enough to be harmful. But I can be wrong and I admit it's a reasonable thing to be worried about, hence my warning.
Saw this recently. Vicente was obvs on hols in jerez! 😄
I find that particular video a little bit odd. I can't quite explain why. Something a little weird about Antonio staring down Vicente whilst flying on the guitar 😏
