How to Play the Conga : Tips for Playing with Latin Bands on Congas

[JeterSwisherFan88]

I play in a Latin band, and that's definitely not how to play the conga in Latin bands. If any Latin bandmember, let alone my musical directors, heard this jazz composer playing all this 'oneny this' and 'twony that,' they would've thrown him out.

[DUBass2236]

That was fucking lame... don´t go around shit teaching like this, people who are actually willing to learn from scratch might come here and learn everything wrong...

[GodOfWarWalkthroughs]

I will find this guy and cut his hands off and sew his mouth shut!!!!!!!!!

[middlebit]

How this for Tips for Playing with Latin Bands on Congas: learn to play your fucking instrument!

[PercPhreak]

in all 12 keys, you have got to be kidding me, that's incredible

[Ton2a]

I think Giovanni Hidalgo could play way better than that only with his dick.

[jalvare11]

While checking around to find rea congas players I came accross this" maestro of Latin Groove" instructing me to follow a new dimension in music based on...the oneny and the twony...This dude is not for real, You got to be kidding

[euforiaz7]

This is so bad, man!! I feel pity for this pobre vato loco !!

[donanc]

depressive

[szaboszabo7]

wait...so if i have bongas (which do not exist), i can go "dedudududapa"? interesting....

[yagareta]

[yagareta]

[ranmas2004]

1 e and a 2 e and a 1 e and a 2 e....LOLOLOL!!! OMG!!! I'm in TEARS!!!! LOLOLOLOL!!!!!! What the heck kind of Latin music is playing on his keyboard?????

[Zappawits]

"So there's all these differnet approaches,but you want to keep that steady rhythm goin...and really keep that groove and you gotta keep it goin fast and you can move around and if you have some bongos too you can go, doo doo doo da ba, and move around the whole thing, but really gotta feel that groove and just start goin in those fast sixteen note motions." ....YEAH! THANKS IDIOT HUT.

[FrostyPuddle]

Is the timing even correct? Just want to know.

[Pepin253]

This is truly by far in all my years of playing congas, the worst/ horrible / most embarrassing Conga playing I have ever seen to date!! U should really check ur self lol...

[techguyz708]

I didn't think it could get worse than the paper tuner secret.....when I'm bored I look for these videos for a good laugh.

[berkleeStudent]

If we were at a bonfire on the beach and we ran out of wood I'd burn you and spare the congas. : )

[jjlwis]

fake and gay

[456123500]

He is REALLY feelin' that 2 and 4!

[sorry606]

hello. i kindly would like to comment that you make every conga player on earth look awful with this video. i humbly request that you take it off for the sake of any human who possibly wants to have a future with congas. you make us look... awful

[TheEmph]

Aaw! Come on guys.......leave the poor kid alone, he's either two nuts short of a squirrels nest or taking the piss out of us all to extract a reaction..........either way he's as funny as fuck!!!!!

[doublebassheeltoe]

I'm pretty sure a steady rhythm is the last thing you want to keep in any form of jazz rhythm section.

[Kalul0]

yO!! are you hungry ?? I can give u some of my crap xD!

[madchops82]

Wow...you officially suck big time. Hit the woodshed 'dere nitz.

[ufologo22]

Such a clown this guy... Quit Pot!

[mikeleza]

What a genius!!

[djmhogo]

Ignorance and arrogance of benefit to no-one. Fortunately there's loads of other good instructional videos on youtube, check out Johnny Conga and Nate Torres.

This guy is not a typical Anglo musician, he is a disrespectful, uneducated fool.

He is quite funny though.

[sweavo]

if you wanna play and sing at the same time, check out youtube.com/watch?v=HZsBL4d1Eu­s

[kiuban]

Its a good motivation video on what not the hell to do..... Damn loco que fockin carajo le pasa a este tipo......

[chichipoya]

no mames pajaro, que tu lengua raspa!  unless this is a joke, you are what we call PAYASO!!!!!

[aumzen]

I am not sure if this guy is for real or making a joke. Anyway, unless you are looking for comedy you better look elsewhere for lessons.

[jimmgon]

This kid needs some serious electro shock therapy.he really believes he is a congero.I say send him to " Shutter Island " for a prolonged confinement...and please do not allow him to play drums even at recreation time !!!

[trueuno1]

what a desapoitment, you should check Geovani Hidalgo. for real

[d0minirican]

If you want to learn how to truly play congas/tambores, run from this like a hooker from a priest

[PlanetBongoSan]

i cant believe this crap is still up on here. watch this guy's conga videos if you need lessons in how to make a fool of yourself pretending to be an expert at something you don't know the first thing about. if you want to learn congas look elsewhere. REMOVE THE VIDEOS RYAN FFS

[jicamo53]

Ñooooooo! Que clase "e tecnica y estilo! Me apunto mañana!

[agueybana79]

I'm saving this video....everytime I'm depressed, I'm putting this on...guaranteed laugh.

[giaccobrazzi]

The only thing Latin about this video might be the root of some words you use to spit out nonsense. Heres some Latin: icksnay on the cooongasnay

[yzer222]

Where the fuck do you get off, man?!?... you don't have a single clue as to what the most basic formula of Latin music is!! What Latin band are you suggesting for this crap?.. are you getting paid for each view on this lesson? if you are then THIS IS A MOTHER FUCKING SCAM!

[PlanetBongoSan]

my friend, you deserve all the abuse the musical community can muster for the arrogance you display in thinking you can just go around teaching something you've clearly never studied

please remove these videos, they are a mockery of teaching which in fact crosses the line into fraud

[jesamani75]

my 7 year old daughter can slap the tumbadoras better than you.

[lagiqueaux]

[artista2000]

There are 4 yr olds who play and talk better than you do, what a disgrace to society. Do you know your name? do you know where you live ? Is the moon made of cheese?  you are a joke.

[Mikygal12]

[domkirk]

[pokerbone]

[pricankid9]

1:34...

do-do-do da-bah... fail

[RicoRicanNYC]

way off, I have been playing congas for years and this has to be one of the worst lessons I have ever seen. I say that because anyone can see that you have not even taken any lessons.

[Globalcafe]

I will never question my skills again! Dude look up videos of Eddie Montalvo. I am not being a dick. If you have a passion for Conga...check out the videos on the LP music site!....Clave is everything!

[IfIfsandands]

You're a fuckin chancer man. Go back to the special School you escaped from.

[SharkFin]

[love4impalas]

[whistlepig09]

Wow. What a dong.

[luisitosax]

[weroranch]

[jdl1881]

[chuchugada]

[nrod6]

can you go over the 1-ee and a 2-ee, and a 3-ee and a 4-ee...you went to fast for me, your way to advanced. Also, can you please elaborate on the term "tudu-du-dapa" (1:34)

[rhythmatheart]

[salsero619]

I can FEEL Ricky Ricardo turning over in his grave! What Latin Band does he think he qualifies for...Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass???

[DoubleEsse]

[dolfe86]

jesus, u really should delete this video...

[ifixyourpc]

I am looking for a conguero to join my band of drumming clowns. I think you would be a perfect fit. You are going so fast and those notes are so perfect it would be hard to find someone with your talent to compliment the "drumming clowns" I have a dancing monkey on the timbales, a wolloping walrus as a piano player and now the best conquero I have yet to see... MOVE OVER GIOVANNI HIDALGO you have some competition here.....

[jimbooie718]

do not teatch unless you have been taught

and we all know

you have never been taught.

leave latin bands to the latins

[rhythmking10]

WHOHAHAHAHA

couldnt stop lol , this shit is even worse than the Bongo video chump, god forbid if this idiot ever got to play in a cuban band

must be some of the lamest shite on youtube

[jazzrudeboy]

I'm very glad to see that everyone hates this guy as much as I do. Expert Village needs to take this shit off and FAST!!!

[colinreese82]

cOngas NOT cUngas, dumbass. This is horrible. This video might be worse than the idiot English DJ playing the congas. You don't play a single correct correct note or tone. How did this get on expert village. This guy is a cake eater.

[smokin316]

dudududaba jajajajajaja este come caca. r u serious u white shit eater go slap your mommas congas dumbass

[JATCA69]

1E and a 2E...got it, thanks.

[junito911]

[dieguillo888]

[pricankid9]
