[:D] El Ted has got a point...its eazy to sitt here and criticize everyone that plays guitar and isnt Paco, I know [:D] its very eazy to fall in that... but at some point we need to be aware of the big picture... we all benefit because of guitarists like Armik, Gispy Kings, Otmar, Juan for students, gigs whatever...expecially outside Spain but i imagine even in Spain like it or not they are reaching a wide audience and some of that audience because of that wants to hire flamenco, buys a cd, goes to a flamenco concert, has guitar lessons, buys a flamenco guitar ( ok not all but if 1 or 2% of that audience buy a cd or go to a concert we have allready benefited, some wont majority will buy flamenco nuveo etc..but some will look deeper in Flamenco...thats our people [;)]) u have to accept that majority of the general population dont know and dont care about real flamenco...if this guys are able to some how reach and capture theyr imagination somehow ...they must be doing something right....how can they not be ? if so many people like what they do ? enough to buy their albums ...enough to make them well known even to us at the end of the day music shouldnt be for other musiceans or something only musiceans should get or enjoy...the idea is to include everyone else... ps.. For some reason i am having a very politically correct month [8|] (I dont know why i cant shake the f*ing thing) i reserve the right to go back to my selfish, politically incorrect, imature, inconsiderate ways...as soon as i shake this stupid guilt [&:]...its EXAUSTING trying to be correct ALL the time [:D][:D] and i dont want anyone to think i am criticizing cause I am not, i know u guys are joking ! i some of u might remember i was the worst at this sort of things lol...just expresing my personal feelings atm on the subject...I really think this guys deserve a litlle more respect from us or atlist not to be paid out on our public forum which could be read by anyone and affects our reputation, theirs etc...in the end we all lose...
