CL Reply of the day

Sign in to disble this ad
So I'm looking for a percussionist for a project I'm doing.
Part of the ad says "we take the music seriously but don't take ourselves too seriously".

Here's somebody who takes himself way too seriously...
But hey, at least he doesn't shout!

Quote:
im a hand percussionist of twenty years m3inus a few i took off . if you know the language of conga djembe then talk to me about what you what without words like rock'in and groov'in ad ill respond i can play djun djun and djembe and congas timballes and others but you are likely unaware of how to address me, so even if i posess the skills.? can you really talk to a man who handles dead skin into sound ? would you even know the first thing about it ?.i'm great at what i do whithin comparison , but while your great you play these really synthetic things with varnish inbetween the tree and you and refined metal instead of your forbearers version which bore cat gut as the string . so your synthetic instrument cant answer my dead skin the goats walking my way skined drums. how do you think to enter the venus temple without the thing on your fingers when the air you move isnt yours . do you walk away when the only place you could go was to the speaker
because you cant get from your hands anywhere else. repond with words like rhumba in a three four time with (insert african name for rythm part here) doing the same part it does there but the break is (insert call form of different rythym name here) and then end it with(insert name for differnt break as end here) and mabey your get a drummer who can do all those old jedi things you hope to hav done. yours truely the only tree of knowledge

Nah, we don't play goats, we sacrifice them. With a mojo hand...

Seriously, you see the dog in my avatar? Goat skin drum heads are seriously in danger of becoming chew toys at my place...
