Escribano -> RE: Gig in Manchester (Feb. 20 2005 19:39:49)

We have had this dicussion many times on this forum. I am with you on cante and guitar - I would rather have that than guitar and dance or even solo guitar. I think we are probably split on this as many rate solo guitar over flamenco with cante but I am not one of them. Another factor is availability and logistics, it is easier to sit in one's bedroom thousands of miles from Spain and try to learn guitar licks than find a singer to work with[;)] I agree about flying someone in from Malaga and it wouldn't cost them much but taking exception wouldn't change anything, they'll just get a flamingo band in. You are not unwanted and I suspect we agree with your sentiment but you took a rather condescending (and anonymous) tone to an innocent request from a Jerezano for anyone in the UK who might be able to help him out. Melchor could ask his friend Moraito, but I suspect Chico wouldn't leave Arco de Santiago for a free return flight to Manchester and some peanuts[;)] El Moro don't make this your last suspiro, come on in. We are private only in the sense that we validate email addresses, for what that is worth and moderate the discussions - some flamenco forums have got out of hand elsewhere.
