You may be a djembe player if.......

You annoy everybody by playing on tables, counters and anything else within reach.

[DjembeDave]

If you get annoyed by people calling your djembe a bongo.

[the kid]

you play djembe

...GunDun/GoDo/PaTa has become part of your daily right/left consciousness.

Your spouse looks at you weird when you tell her that you're certain that you left your car keys on the GunGoPa side of the room.

.....if you get up set at the skin peeling off your hands cause it took so long to build up.

-You get excited when new callouses start forming on your hands.
-You have forgotten where you put your wedding ring.
-The gorgeous jade bracelet you got in Vietnam is sitting on your dresser.
-You hear rhythms in your head. All. Day. Long.
-You dream about drumming.

people look at your hands and perhaps think you marrige is on the rocks cos your not wearing your ring any more



(Mine is a particulaly big chunky Tibetan torquoise piece so its quite noticable that its absent)

[rachelnguyen]

Oh, John,

That is SO funny! People have actually asked me if I got a divorce because I always forget to put the rings back on.

[silviuj]

youre a djembe player when you do play and you play out of pleasure not forcing yourself just because of the people's eyes and you have the rhythm in you soul

[Nodrog]

Your jaw and teeth sometimes get achy from working out patterns on your teeth.

Ok, sorry to re-post here but I just noticed a name,"djabaflora" or something like that just appear under my name. What's that about then? Just curious.

[bubudi]

it's djabarafola or one who plays the djabara...your rank based on number of posts.

jabaflora = candida growing in jabba the hut's gut

[pipasbirdman]

...your girlfriend stares you in fury saying 'I-am-not-a-djembe!'

[James]

you realise that your partner will always leave you for someone who plays djembe less than yo....

[rachelnguyen]

Your car smells like a Malian goat shed.
