    Thanks for having me, and I hope this inspires some folks to dip their toes into this style of guitar playing! 🙂

    For the programmers out there,  Adrian Holovaty is the author of Django - one of the most popular web frameworks for Python. Now I know why he named it Django!

    I admire Paul for not over-rehearsing while shooting this video and presenting the process of learning this music style in the most authentic way. What a fun video to watch!

    I can't believe nobody mentioned the fact that Django basically only had the use of 2 fingers as well! Insane

    That progression is the chorus part of Always look on the bright side of life.

    It's amazing how modest Paul is about his playing.  He picks things up right away but still remains humble in his approach to others.

    If there is such a phenomenon as a perfect lesson between a master teacher and advanced student, this is it. Beautifully executed.

    The cultural contribution of Romani musicians is massive, but unfortunately largely overlooked. From India to the Middle East, From the Levant, the Balkans, France &amp; Spain, even the US, they have shaped &amp; adapted local musical styles and transported them across borders without losing the source..
