London Pena pic

you guys must get fed up with me posting pics of me dancing, but until my guitar playing is fit to listen to that's all I got to share. So here's me dancing a bulerias por solea at the Pena. Might get some up on youtube if I get my act together. Val, what a pity we didn't get one of us dancing Sevillanas together

Actually, no. Well I'm not fed up anyway. Thanks, this is very nice.

(And thanks for the previous bulerias pics, I didn't thank you on the thread because I didn't get there soon enough to avoid being accused of necro-posting or narco-posting etc.)

Great pic, I'm not fed up with them so keep 'em coming!

who took that photo and have they tweaked it in photoshop, it looks really good. not that I'm an expert but the dark colours and the way it captures the movement on your hands is really cool.

It was taken by Steve, one of the Pena committee members and in fact he was complaining about there not being enough light, so the dark smoky atmosphere is happy accident!

Well I'd love to dance to Flo's playing, being an admirer of his music, but it does look as if I'm slapping his face!

Like the sepia tones tho.

Got busted looking at the wrong part of the body while acompaning .....again

dancers i work with introduced a move in the choreography called " slap florian" ...even if they dont acctualy see me doing it, they know that between what i look at and about where my mind goes during the dance its never unjustified

....litlle do they know that its the slap that fuels all this imaginations

Ailsa, Could do with more dancers on foro anyway. Have you come across Ari and Max at the London Pena? I've heard of ghost writers but ghost guitar players is getting ridiculous. Donald
