Hi everyone!

[The Dank]

Greetings from Maine!

My name is Dan King, and I've recently been bitten by the djembe bug...not that that's a bad thing!

While I was at Williams College, I was a member of Kusika, an ensemble that studies traditional and contemporary music and dance from Africa (mostly West Africa). In Kusika, I learned a little djembe, a little kpanlogo, a little conga, a little lunga (ghanaian talking drum), and a smattering of other things. Lately, though, I've decided to focus my musical energy on the djembe. Since graduating, I've been studying djembe with Carl (of djembefola.com fame) and trying to figure out what to do with my life (Go to graduate school in mathematics? Try to make a go of it as a musician? Live in a cardboard box?).

Anyway, I'm very excited to be a part of this community!

Peace,
~D

Welcome Dan,

Funny, I just saw you a few hours ago!

To the rest of you guy's - Watch out for this one, he's a quick learner, and has some serious chops!

Back at Dan - Don't forget to post pics of you Wula drum when it gets in!

Greetings again, this time from New Hampshire!

I signed up here about a year and a half ago, but I never actually got around to making any posts. I've been lurking occasionally over the past several months, and I've learned a lot. Now, I'm hoping to get a bit more involved.

Cheers to all,
~D
