geemobee Hey peeps At around 11/12pm last night on SABC3 ... there were two peeps playing guitar on a stage with a BEEG crowd. Just the two of them a guy and girl - look like they could be brother and sister, kinda latino. Both having nylon acoustics but WHAT WERE THEY DOING?? WOW - absolutely amazing stuff ... looked like spanish/classical or whatever... Im a newbie and was like... why is she stumming so violently and banging her guitar at the same? The leads that he was ripping out were sooo smooth... and then he did something sooo fast ... my eyes couldnt keep up WHO ARE THESE GUYS ... ? any idea .. Shoo.. glad I got that out :-[ G
[deleted] Didn't see it, but at a guess, was it Rodrigo and Gabriela? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodrigo_y_Gabriela
[deleted] These 2 X mexican metal players? (Thats honest ?) yeah they show them on SABC alot... More likely than not ?
[deleted] As a matter of interest, we have our own duo here in SA, go check them out if you have a change chance edit// I cannot spell today... :? CH2
[deleted] Geemobee, also check out Strunz & Farah. And, for a slightly different mood, but equally impressive, any footage of the amazing Stephane Grappelli.

Squonk 1. Be Mexican 2. Get fedup with the thrashmetal scene 3. Move to Dublin and busk on the streets 4. Get noticed by record company 5. Knock the Arctic Monkeys off the number one slot ? seriously If you buy their album Rodrigo y Gabriela, It has a DVD where both Rodrigo and Gabriela give some lessons. I think her percussive part is the most difficult. have fun ?
