RE: John E. Marlow guitar concert se... (in reply to Ricardo)
Wikipedia says you can say it to musicians as well as to actors, as an ironic way of wishing them good luck. The actors' superstition is that straight up wishing someone good luck can jinx them.

Well it was an awesome show. The highlight for me was when Ricardo played his Ciaconna a la flamenca piece. He shared a memory about his dad playing the classical piece for him at the beach when he was a kid. There were a lot of musicians and classical guitar players in the audience and they were all jaw dropped. It was great to see their reaction to Ricardo’ taking the piece up to level 11. The Singer/ percussionist was top notch too.
