Calling all Surdo players

This message is for all surdo players. I'm just going through a number of things, and I noticed that we have quite a few surdo beaters missing. Also, a number of straps I've bought over time have gone. So what's going on? Do some of you maybe have beaters/straps at home? Could you please have a look? Regarding straps, I distinctly remember buying a strap that looked like a car seatbelt. It's about $70 - and it's gone. I also had a brown leather belt - it's gone.

So, who needs all these straps at home, and why? And what's the deal with the beaters? I'm getting very worried...

I can't see any beater or strap... And I've moved recently so I know about every little thing that entered the new home...

I still have the drum Loic borrowed and the two sticks though. I'm still hoping to bring them back soon and hear some nice samba again.... ;-(

It looks like I might be able to have a go at the tamborim this week or next week. Fingers and vertebrae crossed!!

Vertebrae crossed. Amen to that!

Heal soon Cedrick, we miss you!

Remko,
I brought 6 beaters and 12 straps with me to Amsterdam. Do you really want to know why?

Paul said...

Hi Remko,

I don't have your beaters or straps, sorry. Happy to contribute to the beater and strap replenishment appeal though, I've had good use of them.

Cedric, sorry to hear that you're suffering. I hope you get better soon.

Marcel, I think I actually would like to know why....
