				no no no no no........he was the conga player with El Gran Combo which is who this band is ..he must have hurt his hand to use the stick..there are other videos of him playing with his hands..In Patato Valdez's case he had a problem with his right hand as well and in later years used a stick...of course you are limited with  the stick..no slaps for example..
