Hey guys, I will try to answer all your questions. I just read the 'flamenco jam' thread so I am caught up on that. Great playing, by the way. I left in a smoke of depression caused from my lack of decent employment and chronic wrist pain. I took a long break from typing long emails and typing in general.....which is the best excuse for my silence. Well, I am still living in Oregon which still has the highest unemployment rate in the USA, so I have about 5 jobs, some of them 'under the table'. I am getting paid to play for Solo Flamenco Dance Studio, which makes me enough to pay for strings. Also, I have been getting together with various musicians who want to get a fusion thing going. It will be flamenco-based and will have non-traditional instruments such as violin, cello and South Indian (Carnatic) percussion. I hope that will bring in some money in the next few months. I have also been promoting small shows in my new home, http://alivelyquiet.com/church/events.html In the 'floorplan' section of the site, you can see a pic of me and my ex-girlfriend whom I met at the flamenco studio. No, I didn't get paid to build that website. My wrist(s) still bug me and I ice them down frequently and they are definately better. My skills not only returned, but I am playing better than I ever have. I am pretty happy about that. That's the skinny. How have you guys been, catch me up. James Zurdo, my email address hasn't changed, but if you send a large attachment, it ain't gonna make it. If there is something attached, send it to otherjamesmayer@yahoo.com
