Awesome story man! It's great that you had this opportunity. Nerve racking but fun stuff.

Although i have been to his concerts, I have never had the opportunity to meet Paco. Here is a photo of me playing for Manolo Sanlucar.

yeah that's flamenco! no matter what you play, but play it with respect to compás and tone and you've got to get an aire!

cool amigo , sanlucar is like god also, wow tells us more where did u play for him ? good move with the tradional falsetas, gee imagine him playing a bulerias then saying to u is that boring , pheww, dont mess with him.

it made me think of a time a few folks played for john williams master class , and a player played a wrong note (Twice) john stood up raised his voice, then everyone was like mortified, ye old could have heard a pin drop
