Something to _never_ say to your/a real recording engineer:
"We've got this friend who's awesome on the bongos."
(Replace "bongo" with "water tabla", "doumbek", "bodhran", etc.,
depending upon your age, sexual proclivities, politics, degree of touchy
feely and/or political correctness).

Living proof why you don't major in "drum corps" in college. :-)
Thanks for that. Those guys are always entertaining. He obviously has
some great "hands," as we say in drum circles (not literally in drum
circles, like a bunch of hippies in a park playing djembes... but in the
drumming community). He's taking some drum corps licks and few tricks
and sort of playing them over and over, changing tempo and surfaces. So
yeah, not too "sophisticated," but impressive and entertaining to the
laymen... which are his audience.
That makes me wonder how much money those guys actually make, which I
won't even get into, because it'll probably start a 4 month debate. :-)
Thanks again...
