MHMF Saturday: Rodrigo Y Gabriella photos
[Photos by Merry Swankster]
I've been a bit harsh towards the Mexican guitar duo Rodrigo y Gabriella, unduly so in retrospect. I previously panned them for relying too heavily on their flamenco interpretations of hard rock classics in order to grip the crowd. It's a bit of a crutch if not a novelty. Luckily the covers were fewer this time around and I was better able to appreciate the interplay between guitars. I don't know how they did it, but the large main stage crowd was definitely feeling it. The photos may deceive, but the gigantic stage did not succeed in dwarfing the group.
