15 Seconds Of Flame

It’s 3:00 pm in Toronto, on a grey and quiet Friday afternoon. In Spain, it’s 10:00 pm and somewhere in some small bar in some small town a guitar is about to catch fire. Or so it seems. A moment ago our Spain & Morocco trip planner, Sebastian Lapostol, sent me this brief but compelling video along with the words, “By the way, this is where I am right now. This is how we roll in Jerez!”

Some guys have all the pluck. It’s worth clarifying that the guy in the video is not, in fact, Sebastian. But it’s also worth adding that Sebastian also plays a freakishly fast flamenco guitar. Planning may be his day job, but music fills his evenings and weekends. Should you happen to find yourself in Jerez (home of sherry and thick Spanish culture) some time and have even a passing interest in music, you’ll want to hit the town with Sebastian. He loves his adopted country, adores flamenco, and knows exactly how to land you in the front row of an electrifying local performance just like this one.
