Sunday, Djembe Drums & Skins sent out a special flyer via email. The flyer shows some of the products we received this month from the Ivory Coast and Ghana. The djembes are beautiful with very nice carvings. If you would like to see the flyer and are not on our list you can send us an email and let us know. We will have a link to it from the website very soon. www.goatskins.com

Please note that the percussion page had a mistake in the address. It can now be opened by clicking on the link in the flyer.  Oops.  

Lastly we apologize for all of the junk mail that gets attached to our blog. We try to keep it off but sometimes it sneaks back onto the site. Just ignore it. Thanks!

Ivory Coast Shipment is Here

Thursday, March 12th, 2009
Sandy in Container
The container arrived early this morning. Yes, it was rainy and sleeting. Cold too. With the help of many friends we were able to get the goods off the truck and into the storage sheds in about 3 hours. Not bad. DD&S will send out an information flyer early next week. The djembes have wonderfully carved bases. There are several good looking bougaraboos and djun sets. There were also cow hides and goatskins. Everything looks good. Photos have been posted on our facebook pages. www.goatskins.com

It is in Charleston, SC and will be in Seymour, TN tomorrow morning! Hurray. Sometimes it takes a lot of patience to deal with the shipping company. Watch the website www.goatskins.com for the announcement and photos. We will also send out a flyer via email letting you know what’s new.

We are excited that our DVD, How to Re-Head a Djembe, just received its copyright from the US government. We are celebrating by creating a delux kit that includes a djembe shell, rope, skin, rings and the dvd, How to Re-Head a Djembe. It costs $160.00. www.goatskins.com
