Larry plays a djembe on this tour during his sojourn on the ramp during Crazy Tonight. He does not play a bongo. I don't know why this is a bee in my bonnet tonight but it is. Please just roll your eyes at me instead of throwing rotten fruit.

It kinda cracks me up how he has to straddle the thing while he's walking. :lol: Wouldn't it be easier to hold it to one side?
 
As a drummer, it has bugged me that it's been called the wrong thing.

That said, I wouldn't argue a thread of djembe pictures.
 
Hey, BC, since you're buying drums, can I have a Black Beauty 6.5 x 14" snare? :hyper:

I'm not obsessed with Tré's equipment! :shifty:

Good thread idea Zu. :up: Annoys the shit out of me when people call simple things by wrong names.

Though I've been guilty of calling it a conga myself while I knew it wasn't. :reject:

And it's only 200$?? THat's not much! :hmm:

Totally not showing off my own work here. :wink:

Hmm, they would be kinda cool/different to place a glass table top on a couple of them and use them as end tables. :hmm:
