Never seen this lady before... Grisha commented and gave her a jaleo, so maybe we're onto something here.
She is playing stuff a bit hard for her level, but she is not bad. I see she learned this from the video version I uploaded. You know Gerardo was not playing that middle section toward the end in concerts for a long time. I asked him to teach it so he had to relearn it and then changed it. You see him laugh and look over at me at that moment after the rasgueados. She skipped the last falseta, the arpeggios on the bass strings. Pretty cool that version has made an impact vs people using the Faucher tabs etc.

She also learned Roma from my video because I can see her making the same mistakes I made when I figured out the tune the first time (after which I realized I had made mistakes and uploaded a newer version, but everyone had already been poisoned by the initial version LOL).

I wanted to say the same thing in my previous post after I said what I said about Roma, but I figured I won't because you would. And here we are...
I knew you wanted to say it and I knew you knew I would say it and if I said it first then you would know that I would do that and say that you knew I would say it before you got to, and I also knew that you would admit it and here we are.
