Even when I used to be a beginner conga drummer but never had the sticky hand syndrome such a good thing! As a professional conga bongo drummer just want to thank you for helping me when I was starting congas & bongos! This was way before I was a member of UA-cam & appreciate all you not only did for me but now for the others starting as well.

[@andronikyegiazaryan3546]

[@bethgleason7183]

Thank you.

[@mannym2122]

Thank you for all your awesome vids. Great help! Do you have any resources on the bougarabou? I've heard it's played similar to the congas but slightly different. Haven't found anything online so Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

[@joemurer4506]

I like the ideas 💡 😏 👌 😌

[@remygaron8311]

How should be the angle of the bearing edge on congas thanks for answering👏👏👏🥁🥁🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@AnnaBakkerNZL]

come on to new Zealand

[@numanuma20]

My teacher told me to image that I'm doing a karate chop when hitting the conga. He also uses the heel toe. Do you use heel toe for palm finger strokes?

[@jacobsilva5423]

Hi, I have a 11 inch 30th anniversary conga (quinto), my head got damage. What tycoon head would you recommend for this conga? The reason I am asking, tycoon does not have the black original conga head. Thank you for your advise .

[@jaygandhi778]

I end up hurting my my finger above the knuckle line am i playing it wrong or the djembe drum is small for me ( i play on 10 inch djembe and i am 21).. please do guide

[@janakaprabath6580]

Dear sir,,,I wanna buy a conga head so ,which Remo conga head you recommend ?? Fiberskyn ? Skyndeep or Nuskyn ?

[@johncuscaden2021]

Does this apply to the john bonham "moby dick" playing when he hit snare,, rack tom, and floor toms?

[@josephseka6439]

Most of the times when I play 2 Congas, my finger creases hurt pretty badly. I can i stop that from happening?

[@roundandrounditgoes772]

Even though I have grown callus over the years I still use tape (that I re-use) to protect my fingers, nothing wrong with that.

[@proverbalizer]

Play 1 conga first until your body adapts, and your technique is effortless. And shea butter is the greatest

[@gabygorial7323]

Cuz the

[@michaelmarotta5947]

“Sticky hand syndrome” is actually called a closed tone and every tone is important.

[@Misterdandamanify]

Not when you're focusing on open tones?

[@nikolakiaskeezy4656]

мистер Пропер фигни не посоветует ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

[@jpb93360]

Better check Michael Spiro than this guy.
