Ok here i what i was told today by "Jason Cisneros" Jays 'apprentice" and my former student and friend now.
Jay and his now deceased brother started S 0 S...Jay was not the aprrentice, my bad...hey man that was in 1971, can't remember everything hahaaa...shoot....
Jay was originally a :TinKnocker/Metalsmith
Jays brother did not get along with Junior but Jay did and they shared drum knowledge together
Jay can play Rumba
The bands that I picked out for the S O S congas are called "Black Ox-petina"

Don't miss the JC conga basic trainning camp if you're in the Nothwest Territory. Abrazos, Dario
Well I've given up hope, they must be sold by now, the ad was posted sunday at 5:50 or so and I saw the ad 10:00 on monday,
I'm always checking craigslist, I don't know why I skipped on Sunday night, that would have been a score, I would have walked right out of work to go pick them up in Berkeley.
I was hoping the crappy ad would have kept them hid for a bit, no such luck!
