Re: Advice
Hey, IS, sounds like you want to add a Latin flavor to your kit playing, and all of those items can fit in nicely. You can look up Latin rhythms in drum books, or, of course, with the lessons @ DrumBum. If you decide to go to hand drums, they can be added on the side where they can be played by hand or --sigh!!!-- with mallets. I don't recommend playing any hand drums with drum sticks unless you like replacing bongo heads...
Start with what you have and go from there!
keep the beat goin' ... Don't keep it to yourself!
