If you fall of your horse - get back on it.

They decide that they just need to find a way of getting heard which ever way they can. After all if people hear it somehow and people start asking the radio stations to play it; then they will have to air it  by public demand. So they decide to consider even hairdresser's  radio stations.  Any thing will do;  and they will show those powerful people that they won't be silenced!

Finally! A YES!!

After going to many stations and taking gifts and trying unusccessfully  Camilo finds a radio station that will play his record - and without any dubious fees or charges.  Success seems close by: but another music expert gets to know by chance and for him this is not good news.  An independant record being played for free on radio? cutting out all the producers, marketeers and all that a record company would do? what ever next: what if all the artists were to do that? what would happen to record companies? where would they get their cut from?  No way!

Let the music expert listen - tension while waiting for the final opinion

Behind Camilo's back the band members decide to call in a music industry expert to listen to the record.

The band members are not sure about the record and call in the music events organiser (Cuellar) to get his opinion on wether the record can possibly be a hit even though it does seem quite an unusual one. 

They are very doubtful of its possible popularity given that they themselves had chosen the other simpler version which had none of the noises made by the singer Camilo during  the recordings.
