Hi Daniel-

Bummer about your drums. Have you tried Guitar Center in Mathews? They seem to have the most extensive drum shop that I’ve seen. I’ve heard the Sam Ash off Exit 5 (I-77) is good too, but haven’t been there yet. I’ve only been living here for 5 months, though, so I’m not an expert in the area resources.

I don’t own a Djembe, but would love to. All I have for hand percussion is a Toca Synergy circle drum, and some very cheap bongos. I think a drum circle is a great idea, and would love to participate. I agree, there is a lot of stress here. If you do get a drum circle going, I can help out with a website, since I’m a web developer by day.

Good to hear from you. Keep playing.

Best Regards,
-Phil

: I have drum in my heart, and have been sick with this loss. I had a very nice talking drum which I had mastered and used for many years, it was struck by my step-son a month ago (subsequently it is dead). On a recent trip to Seattle, I purchased a beautiful djembe and loved it so. I played and played for the duration of my trip. En route home to Gastonia, the airport Fucked the drum up... the skin is ripped. I must re-head my djembe and I know little about it. Sorry to trouble you, but if you could give me any local advice where to go for supplies I would appreciate anything you can give. When I'm back and druming I would like to jam, if you know of any others interested I'd like to start a Circle somewhere near the River between Mecklenburg and Gaston County. We could use the rythm, this area is sick with the stress of man...need to Drum the troubles away. Take care, Dig your Web Site... Dan
