This is to let you know I have been "reading the mail" here the past several months and benefiting from useful information and opinions routinely shared. At 70 years of age there is no doubt that I am much older than most of you chronologically, if not in spirit. It also is clear from posted samples that many of you play considerably better than I do, but I am improving and with so many years still left before I will be ready for the grave maybe there is still hope.
Thanks to those who take time to share what you know and think about the many aspects of flamenco.

Some senior care centers are loaded with lonely, wealthy widows and senior care centers are nearly always looking for entertainers willing to put on a free show, so hang on to your guitar and you will have a great time.
