DaQuan and His Drum

So one day I'm out on the porch and I see a young man walking by with a Remo drum slung over his shoulder (a two dollar drum from the thrift shop, I would learn), so I call out to him, Hey, bring that drum right up here and let's play some music (my big bass Remo was still on the porch, left over from my morning music session with the children), so he did, and we did. DaQuan Rashad Sugar is his name (his real last name is Sugar - don't you love it?) and we had some fun, including a little metal tongue drum/bass drum improv. I love my porch.
