Hello, just came back this weekend from vacation, 2 weeks earlier as planned because of severe back problems again. Last year I suffered from a double hernia, and since then I have to be very carefull of my posture, but which is very hard. I went to Marocco with a collegue of mine, who is from Marocco, and we went into the mountains with family and friends of him to make music. The enviroment was great, the musicians even better. I've never had such an intamate gathering, and it reminds me of the early cante-days. There was this young guy who had made his own guitar from a can, a wooden stick and a break-cable from a bike....damn he plays as the best. This all was an amazing experience and felt sad I had to leave. What it'll means, I am not gonna participate in the challenge, and personally even worse, I am gonna stop playing now untill my backbone is ok again. Goodluck, and every now and then I'll have a look at the forum, but can't read that much because sitting is one of the worst things I can do. Gladfully I have another 16 cante DVD's which I can put on and enjoy.... This is not the thread, but I don't have the energy to look for the right thread, but these Rito Geografia del Cante DVD's are just fenomonal....for the history offcourse, but also for your compas.... I noticed that, besides the strict compas ofcourse, also the joy and the jaleo's really help in understanding compas.... greetz Remco
