In respond to: "I played a gig this friday, but i actually prefer playing with friends just because its fun rather than doing gigs." Yeah, both can be fun. But i dont know anyone, who studies flamenco, makes excersizes hours a day, learns pieces, learns choreographies, does rehearsals, etc. and all that effort, just to play in his living room? Thats a little bit crazy isnt it? Obviously most people, if not all, do music coz they wanna SHARE their feelings and expressions with other pple. This goes for a 16 year old teeny, who buys an electric just to express himself to others as "cool", as well as for a 38 year old, who studied flamenco more then 20 years! I dont know as what you want to be regarded (i guess not as "cool"), but certainly, there is something, that you also want to share in or better: with flamenco. Or in other words (maybe this is kind of what you mean): the SOCIAL aspect of music, lies IN the music. (I didnt intend to label you as cool or uncool, or as a 16-year old! I have to add that these days)
