    Thanks Dutchman. Now I don't feel so alone. Nothing like A LITTLE APPENDECTOMY ON YOUR SIDE WHILE MAMBO # 5 DRIVES YOU MAD

      Yes, it's hard to embrace the beat of ALL music, and we all have our favorite styles and groups. Perhaps you will enjoy the ORIGINAL Mambo #5 by Perez Prado, circa 1950. I was raised on this stuff and Big Band. Gotta embrace the brass!

      by the way, MD you're on the wedding list for my chicago nephew BK, AND he's marrying a girl of Indian heritage, SSOOoooo, We guys are up for a little Punjabi Bhangra dancing. HA! better start practicing the basic and more advanced steps.

        I Don't know how I missed this Biff. I came across your video in youtube yesterday and wondered why you hadn't posted it to the forum.

        Anyway, Mate, that was amazing! People here, are making big improvements lately and you are definitely one of them.

            But it is a fun way to incorporate new combos into a routine.

              Past Video of more punch-drumming to inspire us!

              Great punch-drumming Biff! Since I am fairly new to the forum, I just took a little viewing stroll through the "Hitting to Music" archives and saw this! Great choice in music! Hope to see another punch-drumming video post by you soon!

                Biff,
                Thought I saw some smoke coming off the bag when you finished. Whew. Nice going. Keep it up.

                  i liked the action of the bags at .32 to .33, was that a rear double bump? Sorry.
