what i meant by african drums/vocals, is that he plays ethnic drum style things, like he has bongos and congas, and a whole wide range of ethnic drum instruments. This adds some variety in the drumming, and he does some vocals too when there isn't a need for african drumming. I sing as well.

like i said, everyone is really talented in the band, but they look to me for the leads and as to when to end or start a song, and right now we are working on stretching as many songs as we can, without losing any credibility in the sound (total improv). My rhythm guitarist is incredible, he has perfect pitch, totally cool. I wouldn't replace him for the world.
