Does anyone have any good recommendations for finding juergas in Spain - I imagine around Seville or Granada, unless anyone has other good suggestions? I want to go to Spain for a weekend now and then, and find some good sessions to play guitar at. All help gratefully received

Sanlucar de Barrameda 3rd week of july, curso de Gerardo y Carmen. Juerga every night in different venues.

The local peñas are always a nice place for juergas and to meet people. Some peñas you have to be a member but not all of them. To participate in juergas it´s always better to go with someone who known there because it makes things a lot easier. If you actually want to play guitar or just doing palmas your expected to at least know your cante and compas! If not just sit in to listen and enjoy [:D] You can do a goolge search for peñas flamencas in different cities. Good luck

Is that true that in juergas palos are usually performed in a pre-defined order? Solea between midnight and 1am. Siguiriya between 1am and 3am. The highlight is Tona at the break of dawn. Looks like juerga starts with cantes festeros. So there's a transition from light, deep, deeper to the deepest. Can anyone confirm this?

If you break the order the duende will never come out and a baby seal gets clubbed and a kitten dies.

Yes this is true. If you break the order the duende will never come out and a baby seal gets clubbed and a kitten dies. I also heard these local times have to be kept no matter where you are in the world. So on the US east coast, being 6 hrs behind Spain, the solea happens 6-7pm and Siguiriyas 7-9pm. It gets weird on the West coast where solea is 3-4pm and siguiriyas 4-6pm. Japan is the worst - as they are 8 hours ahead of Spain time, they have to do the juergas in the early morning 8-11am! Ricardo can you confirm this?

At an after hours juerga at Zambra in New York City in 1962, Sabicas was accompanying. A Spaniard who was passing through town was singing. He started a palo out of the correct sequence. The duende leapt out from under Sabicas's chair and bit the singer in the butt. No animals were harmed.... RNJ

Wait a minute, are you all saying Duende is a baby seal? If so I'm thinking a few of you are tuned up way too far past 440htz. HR pours himself another evile glass of somthing red out of a box, dives under his work bench, and pulls over asbestos sheet...

devilhand -> RE: Juergas in Spain (Nov. 22 2020 12:36:41)
Ok. Morante will confirm this. Looks like no one here has been in real juerga in Spain.

Where did you get that bizarre information? The idea that juergas follow a set timetable with hourly punctuality is laughable[:D]

I don't think so, but what other explanation can there be for such nonsense? Bill

quote: Looks like no one here has been in real juerga in Spain. Darn, satan's mitt is displeased. BTW you are getting predictable in your reactions. When you don't get validation of whatever dubious claim you posit without sourcing, you get a little mean and needle people with a 'no true Scotsman' fallacy framed as a dig - the current example of which I quote above. You've done exactly the same thing at least once before in exactly the same type of circumstances (I forget what the subject was though). Heh.

quote: Ok. Morante will confirm this. Looks like no one here has been in real juerga in Spain. I have. I lived there and they were mostly spontaneous, if you are in the right place at the right time.

Then the rest makes sense to me.
