Friends - it is always easier to poke fun at matters rather than to try and understand what they really are. I would like for any of you (that do not do guitar gigs for a living) to upload a video with a well-executed, complex rumba strumming pattern that is going at a fast tempo for 5 continuous minutes. If any of you can do so, then we'll resume the mockery on this thread. I think that if none of you can do so, then we ought to lock/delete this thread.
Actually, Ramzi, some of us can strum a pretty good Rumba. But that's not the topic of this thread. The topic of this thread is, "How Can Anyone Not Like Rumba." The question comes down to one of taste. For some of us, even those of us who can strum rumba, rumba quickly becomes boring. I neither play it nor listen to it much because to me it lacks variety and, indeed, is boring compared to other forms of flamenco. (I hesitate to call it a "palo" because I don't think it is, although I realize there are different opinions on that score.)
Finally, the last time I checked, Simon determines whether or not a thread should be locked/deleted. Threads are not locked or deleted because some Foro member takes umbrage at opinions with which he disagrees.
