razgueado: one or several right hand's fingers slide along the strings to play chords in a rhythmic manner.
That makes you one of two people who ever figured out my handle without my having to explain it. The other was James Nash, a friend of mine who writes for Guitar Player magazine.
In this video, James is the long-haired guy on the left.

nice. I'm partial to the fiddle.
That's Wayne "Chojo" Jacques. He's the best fiddler no one's ever heard of. Absolutely amazing player, with a wicked sense of humor once you get to know him. Until you get to know him, though, he can seem like a cantankerous asshole, which has probably limited his career. He is genetically incapable of "making nice."
I produced a concert of theirs at my dad's church. I came around the back of the building carrying a six-pack of beer after sound check in time to see him light up a joint. He saw me and quickly extinguished it. I opened a beer and handed it to him. I lit up a cigarette and opened a beer myself. "You ever heard how the ancient Hebrews burned incense in their temple in Jerusalem?" I asked. "According to archaeologists, at least some of it was ganja. Swear to God." He laughed. I said, "So you didn't have to hide what you were smoking."
"I wasn't hiding it." he said, taking a swig of beer. "I just wasn't gonna share." We got along famously after that, or at least as famously as Chojo gets along with anybody.
