Busting Excuses
I don’t speak Spanish, I can’t teach Mariachi.
BUSTED – You don’t have to. If your are unsure of the lyrics use
Google translate
or ask.
I don’t know how to teach Mariachi.
BUSTED –
Maraichi
is an oral tradition. You teach it the same way you teach a modern band.
I don’t know how to play the folk instruments or violin.
BUSTED – That’s why you are here!
