Last night Marcelino cancelled his class and after wandering down town to the fnac - a large department store for electronics - Sachiko texted and told me Paco fernandez was at the teatro central. I went straight to her house and after a beer she lent me leggings to put under my skirt and an old helmet and we got on her scooter and went. We saw Curro and Pepa Fernandez going in and said hi. We ended up seated almost directly behind them. Pacoś style and show were defintely modern, fusion including a saxophone a magic artist and very pretty guitar playing. Not totally puro like his Dad or his aunt (Concha). Anyhow, the biggest OLEs and ANDAs and Alles and Tomas came from those two seats. At one point his mother even said, Sevilla is lucky to have such a son as you! or something to that effect, loudly as one does when one yells out encouragement in a Flamenco show. I didnt think anything of it as I am used to very bold statements in flamenco shows of anything between words to a whole sentence shouted out. Sachiko thought it would have been terribly embarassing.

Anyways, it was interesting.
