Know of any conga teachers in the Orange County California area?

Also, anybody here live in the OC area? Conga items sell pretty good in the local stores, so there must me alot of conga players nearby.

Thanks JC. I think I'm going to first get a better set of congas. As soon as I sell my current set. I'll drop you an e-mail as soon as I do, L.A.'s not too far.

Hi Jerry A,

Hope all is well! I believe percussionist Joey de Leon Jr. is in that area. Check his site at:

Joey de Leon

Hope this helps!
