Great photo, it makes me wonder about all the music that has been played on those drums and where all those beautiful congas are now. Wait... I think one of those congas in the background looks a little familiar!

Glad you guys like the pic...made me smile. Anybody here with any experience with the stave
wood timbales (lower left corner) ? ... would be kind of cool to own a set of wood Gon Bop timbales.
(would also be cool to have the fro the conguero is sportin'.... that too made me smile).
Peace, Chas
