If i may take the opportunity to publicly thank Charlie "EL COQUI" who not only told me about Isla Percussions but has been a Mentor from a distance and has taken a lot of time out of his life to help me. I am grateful to Charlie. Thanks Bro. I am passionate about the drums and have been working very hard at it and i am very pleased with my progress. I also have to thank JC! what a great educator this man is! JC has also taken a huge amount of time out to help as well. I can't say enough about JC he's been a great friend and teacher to me. JC is tough man no playing around when it comes to playing! He's been keeping me honest.
