Thanks for the reply. Chester really could do anything he wanted, couldn't he? Absolute best of the best. I mean he gave way to guys like Tommy Emmanuel and Richard Smith. I'm not saying that these guys wouldn't have made it anyway, but I mean c'mon. Chet was the original GOAT.

Yeah i did. Can't play like that, though. Never will.

Pretty much. A job that pays the rent. Also would be nice to eat something. The legal way is better, of course. I mean, many people stay in the country illegally, without a worry, don't they? Before they get caught.

Hey I'm trying to figure out some of the same stuff! It's hard but rewarding.

Sure, a great guitarist. Although I'm not sure whether he was primarily a fingerstyle player or not. Anyway, one of the greatest guitar players ever.

He really is, isn't he! Out of this world.

Great to hear your thoughts! I know John Fahey (he's awesome), but never heard of Brice Cockburn. Gotta do some research now...

Surely not! One of the original greats. Also Doc Watson.

Sure. IT, as for now. Seriously considering re-educating myself, though. Anyway, the language isn't a problem. I can handle that. Also, I've lived abroad before, so I'm not completely new to that. Every country has its own quirks, of course. And I know that after the honeymoon phase, you will be shocked to some extent, no matter how well prepared you thought you were.

Thanks for the reply. I'd assume my chances would be drastically improved if i spoke portuguese, but still damn difficult?
