ORIGINAL: Ricardo The reason is, IT IS NOT EASY, IT IS DAMN HARD! Ricardo I agree, I think it is hard, but I just wonder what the coincidence is that Paco, Grisha, and Todd all made a point to say that it was an easy technique (hope I am not misquoting anyone). You know me, trying to put things together theoretically--what is the overarching reason that they would think it is easy? Is it a matter of posture (haha!), or something about their approach that can be copied? But still the more I think about it, the harder it seems. I have seen Paco fluff notes, and let's be honest, if you see a "semi-virtuoso" in concert, how often can he pull off a long, hard, fast run completely clean? I don't know if I have ever seen a non-pick player do it! What other technique requires such repeated precision, coordination, and stamina...?
