Last night, Craigslist brought me to Loomis; to the residence of John Daleuski, a former instructor of Afro-Cuban percussion at UCD, in order to purchase an African Djembe (my first musical instrument, ever!) I purchased this Djembe, and John showed me a little bit about replacing the drumhead (since it's totally worn out). I must now find a goat to sacrifice, or a music store that carries suitable goat skins.
On Saturday afternoon, Tyehimba Kokayi starts his first workshop on West African drumming, and I hope to be there.
John also has another Djembe, and a Conga drum, for sale:
