Yo! Abure Doctorumba, those drums are super cool! They look like they've just been built! You've taken great care of them, fantastic!

Suave!

Hola Onile,Captainquinto & SkinDeep,

I invite you all to come to sunny Miami and take a dip in my pool (y despues metemos un tremendo rumbon) and then we play some rumba (guaguanco').Actually, these waters are blessed by our father "el rumbero mayor" Mongo Santamaria.In the last years of his life, I brought Mighty Mongo to the pool so that he could exercise his legs.Don Ramon had hip replacement surgery in 1999 and he die in Feb 1st 2003.So the spirit of "Quinto Mayor" lives in these waters.Mongo loved to play my Juniors,when in Miami these are the ones he played.He didn't like Skin on Skin but only Juniors and of course, Cuban Vergaras.

"Que No Se Pare La rumba,Moforibale al Tambo' "
Dario. :D

SkinDeep,

That is really sick.That self help group is full of shit.Mongo was a great man.A God for us percussion freaks.The Mongo I knew for 30 yrs. was my friend and mentor.A great provider for all his six children.That thing is sickening to read.May they burn in #### !

Vaya mi pana SkinDeep,

That is a fairly offensive image/article. I suggest you edit your post and remove the file attachement and if someone would like to see it, they can message you privately about it and request it.

Pls let me know if you are unable to edit the post, if you can't I will edit it on your behalf.

Con respeto,

Marcelo.

THE FIRST THING I SAID WAS LOOK AT THIS BULLSHIT, WHY? BECAUSE I DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS ARTICLE. IF ANYBODY TOOK IT LIKE I WAS TRYING TO CHARACTER ASSASINATE MONGO SANTAMARIA (RIP) THEN YOU MISUNDERSTOOD ME AND I APOLOGIZE. I DID NOT WRITE THE #### ARTICLE AND I DO NOT AGREE WITH IT, I SAID THIS IS SOME CRAZY SHIT LET ME SHOW THE PEOPLE IN CONGAPLACE, THAT'S ALL. I HAVE NO PROBLEM IN DELETING IT, I KNOW IT'S SICKENING. MY REAL INTENTION WAS FOR US TO PUT A STOP TO THIS, THAT'S ALL. LIKE I SAID I'LL DELETE THE POST, BUT IT'S NOT GONNA STOP THE PROBLEM AND THE PROBLEM IS THE FACT THAT THEY ARE STILL CIRCULATING THIS SHIT ON THE INTERNET.
LET ME GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE, IF I WAS IN AUSTRALIA AND RAN ACROSS LET'S SAY ABAKUA, AND SHOWED HIM AN ARTICLE SAYING THE SAME THING ABOUT ANGA WHO HE JUST HAD A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE WITH. IS ABAKUA GONNA JUMP ON ME? OR IS HE GONNA SAY LET'S GO TALK TO THESE MOTHERFUCKERS, THEY HAVE NO RIGHT!!!

THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY IT'S GETTING DELETED, DON'T WORRY.
MOFORIBALE AL TAMBO!!!

APOLOGY ACCEPTED MY BROTHER, IT'S A THING OF THE PAST!!!
SUGURO QUE HAY CARIÑO.

NOTE: I WENT TO THE ACTUAL WEBSITE, WHAT THEY HAVE IS A WHOLE LIST OF THESE DIFFERENT POSTERS THAT WERE PUT IN THE STREETS OF NEW YORK CITY FROM 1985 TO THE PRESENT. MAYBE WITH ENOUGH E/MAIL REQUEST WE CAN HAVE IT TAKEN OFF. (JUST A SUGGESTION)
THIS IS THE HOMEPAGE

THE POSTER IS IN OUTSIDERS/ASSORTED.

I understood that you were posting it to show that there are crazy people in the world. I personally was not offended, and I love mongo's music. Some pretty crazy people out there!

PS JC maybe you should delete your post too.
