Luis, that sounds pretty cool... do you have any sound clips online I could listen to? I'd like to hear your band. I was able to see the instruments on the Website, but being Spanish-language impaired I wasn't able to tell if there were any MP3s.

Paul, There are some sound clips too but most mandos there are drowned by the other instruments. Anyway, you could see us live online tonight at 22 hr. chilean time zone I presume still EST. the website is http://www.camara.cl/tv/cdtv_2/cdtv_2.htm.

salu2,
