Are you going to see them?

Gabriela has just unbelievable right hand work. Their guitars are Yamaha custom built equipped with transducers. Yamaha engineers toured with them for a year to get the sound they wanted. I would love to hear them live. Gonna be a great show.

I'm hoping to go to Manchester, but going to see John Renbourne the following night so the missus may not be too impressed :angry:
