The next Challenge for playing should be called :

The Compas Challange-

Play two minutes of bulerias with two falsetas each one compas long. One in the first minute and one in the second minute. The challenge needs to include a llamada, a final close and two to four compasses of libre intro. No metronome tracks or palmas tracks. Live palmas allowed as a sub category.

The rest is a set of chords played in bulerias in A phrygian. The basic chords a few passing tonos. That is the set harmonic palette.

you could play a great bulerias solo with two lousy falsetas if you had great rhythm. Today I don't think that's as true from a comparison standpoint because there are so many great guitarists that can do it all

You´re right. Its not a word I write soften when writing Spanish. Besides, I do make mistakes when I´m writing and talking and more so when its not my first language. I can imagine that the same thing happens to you.
I´ve been here 13 years. My spanish level is high, but I´m still a guiri and I will always be, so dont be afraid that they will think I´m Spanish. I will never be. My accent, my language errors will always be present, but more so my looks and my behaviors will always be guiri.
Its alright for me. I dont want to be anything else. And especially not something that would be completely impossible.
So when I called foroflamenco for the world center of guiri flamenco, I included myself, just as i included you and the rest. It would be stupid to think we are anything else.

And on the other side of the argument.........

Ruben has just published a court document noting his victory for defamation against Juan
Estrada regarding his person as well as Andalusian Guitars.

Juan Estrada was a manager at “De Lucia Gestion S.L” a society meant to
manage Paco De Lucia’s official web site (www.pacodelucia.org) as well as
their business of selling the now discontinued guitars made by Vicente
Carrillo branded as “Paco de Lucia”.

Here is the court document published on Ruben's e-zine.

I'd be interested in a translation from anyone here who can speak (and read) Spanish.
