Talk about "getting girls",  You should hear what a Flamenco Guitarist can do with the song "Somewhere my love",  Nadya's song is it ?  I should post it in SS....The roll's he plays with his 1st, 2nd, and 3rd finger's, while walking the bass line with his left hand, and doing hammer-on's, and pull-off's with his pinky and 3rd finger of his left hand too....These people play lightening fast.... Malaguena is a piece of cake on just one guitar for these folks to play part's simultaneously.  They develop skill to become nuance-specific if you can believe that....It's a higher form of reflex.... Flamenco is TOUGH....believe me...

Steven,

Timing and Venue is everything when it comes to getting laid.

The time for a soft stringed guitar is a quiet place where it's just you n her.....With either stars overhead or a glowing fireplace in the background, or in my most memorable case-a train ride in deep winter snow to Munich.....Just you n her....Nylon strings and close quarters in private are very, very personal ....

Pam Kalin was Russian....She was 21, I was 17-18....We were enroute to Munich for holiday via train...It was snowing very heavy....We ended up in the same car together.....She saw my guitar and helped herself to it...began singing James Taylor's "You Got A Friend" which was fresh on the charts back then.....I took over the strings and she sang a few more.........We ended up sneaking off from our travel groups and renting a room at the General Walker Hotel in the snowy mountains for two days together....Pam Kalin, if you read this and if you remember that weekend, please contact me.

<crunching the numbers...doing the math>

Um...no wonder I can get away with calling you SENIOR!!!  

Edit: OK, so I'm not THAT much younger...I grew up on JT's Greatest Hits album!!

Heh!....I had one young sailor who mistook my kindness....One day he eased up and asked, "Do you mind if I call you by your first name?"....I said "No, go ahead, that's fine by me."...."My first name is Senior, and my last name is Chief. From now on I insist you call me that."

I miss those young kids....They were the very best this country had to offer....I have never since then felt so trusted and relied on.

Oh my God!...I just did a Google on the General Walker hotel....It's gone, they tore it down!..............One pic shows a bulldozer ripping it apart!....That was part of my life.....it's gone-been gone for years now and i never knew til just now.

That place sat in the middle of one of the most romantic places on earth.

I'm in shock...I can't ever go back there...It's gone

OOOHHH,OOOHHH,

this is so cool.....This is where I spent my formative years!...Go look.....I forgot how beautiful it was.....This thread got me to remembering, so I did the Google thing....I'm glad i did....These last ten years have made me forget so many good things in my past....

I need to go back there and find me again.

Yes, but there's NO telling for individual taste and emotion regarding when the time is, and where the heck the place might be .... You can take a Flamenco guitarist, sit him down in the corner of a High School gym dance somewhere, and out've the woodwork, some kid's gorgeous mom is going to be jumping the guy in the corner with the 3,000 dollar guitar, while all we kiddies are sitting around waiting for Sadistic Hawkin's to come up to us, put us in a headlock, and do some perpendicular break dancing in a parking lot someplace. Oh yeah,  and there will be PLENTY of High School girls who fall for the Romantic sensitive guy who's different and profound at that same dance....

Some thing's just stand out in their marketability to the opposite sex Keith... Like take the wimpy looking new kid with the french accent.. Yeah, He'll get his books dumped by the football team, and get his @&& hauled up the flagpole swinging around like a fish out've water hanging from the back of his underwear, (which will incidently end up the safest place for him because as long as he's on the ground, some guy *or girl* will have him in a wedgie; but when all is said and done who will end up with the gorgeous girl ?  Thing regarding time and venue is WE NEVER know where and when that'll be.  It constantly changes

Steve, there are always what I call musicians musicians... They exist in aspects of Jazz, Classical, Rock, Fusion, Blues, and Flamenco alike, thing is, there are VERY few that can call themselves Flamenco guitarist's that aren't Musicians musicians...These are the disciplined guitarists...Not anyone can call themselves that...Most today are really the talents among guitarists, they can also play MANY other styles with ease...To start out with a tough tough discipline and work downward, Like I did, is doable of course.... To start off where most of us are now at midlife, and tackle the top, is TOUGH....If you think you can do it while sitting out on a boat deck someplace taking in some sun, that'd be great !    I wish I had that type of capacity to absorb new advanced skills !!

Steven,

Just for you, i'm going to dig out a pic of me and my big framus when i was standing on the shore of the lake below hitler's eagle's nest....Bare with me cause i gotta find it, then scan it, then post it.....The point is, tho, is that this guy back then was wearing levis, jean jacket and cowboy boots and toting a jumbo acustic guitar across his back in the middle of europe back in the early 70's.....And he was getting laid like mad.....All the "popular" kids had long hair and wore polyester and were playing electric.....I'm still in jeans and boots still wearing the same haircut and still getting laid.....At least I don't have to lug that big-assed guitar around anymore. ..About the only thing I do different now is i wear Wranglers, not Levis's...and they are still size 30x34 ....Wranglers got more room in the crotch than Levis, ya know....That's the only reason i changed.

Of course, you were the "new and different guy, the novelty", or the greener grass on the other side of the Atlantic pond...Same way foreign accents and exotic looks can go far with AMerican women... Of course what Keith isn't telling us, is he found out all these women knew about 10 words of Engris

If you still have a size 30 waist, and are a 34 inch inseam, either you are in excellent condition, or anorexic and 6' 2" and 115 lbs

Steven, you are a trip!.....Heh, heh!....Ok, so are you saying i need to go back there and find my youth again?....You up for a road trip, buddy?.....Me thinks you could use a little change yerself.....Hell, let's go!...It sure beat winter in these hick pines.

,  Yeah, we'll go to europe, You'll end up with the Swedish model, and I'll be waiting to be released from from the medical facility in Athens where I got raped while trying to pick up my wallet at the Placa.

Nope, i'm neither....I still wear the same size i wore in high school......As far as the inseam, don't you know jeans MUST stack over your boots?...That's a rule and it always has been....Your jeans have to have that wrinkle neck look...you know, kinda like a flacid, i mean a er,.....How do i say this?......Trust me Steven, your Wranglers need to stack over your boots.....Just do it and don't ask why.

Kappy, I can see that I need to show you a few things before we venture off...First of all, you never bend over anywhere in Europe....At least not in public.....Those suckers there just ain't normal like you and me....And that's exactly why American men do so well over there.....So put your wallet on a chain and let's get packed.

You're lucky Keith,  Best waist size I got down to since college was around 32-33 two years ago, I got down to around 175 lbs....My weight roller-coasters, as does my waist...When I was on the chase I was more concerned about my appearance,  nowadays everything below my stomach stays covered over by a computer desk anyway, and when the thinning hair get's to be more of a problem, I'll just get a 21 inch monitor, and put this smaller one in storage.

Yeah,  I suppose that's why we should never have bought SanFrancisco, and Cape Cod from Luxemburg.  I suppose that must be what they mean when they say "Americans are more sexually repressed"  LOL ...Well, I'm suddenly starting to feel quite patriotic !
