I waited over 10 years for a chance to hear Zihuatanejo’s own phenomenal guitar duo, Rodrigo y Gabriela, live. Sadly, they did not wait for me.

I'm with you. We saw the Rolling Stones on a small stage, in a small arena in Montreal in the early-to-mid 60s. All five were cheek-by-jowl on-stage, like they would be in an intimate nightclub. They were a band.
These days, due to huge stages and bigger audiences, performers prance around, separated widely from each other most of the time. Really sad to see Mick Jagger prancing around all by himself....just a parody of the good 'ole days. And then there's all the lights, smoke, special effects and other crap, ad nauseam. For todays audiences, the music apparently isn't enough: have to provide all the other circus nonsense to keep their attention.
