Joy to watch

This man is very inspiring. He is a prime example of finding your purpose. He does what he loves. Cunga man never let anyone discourage you from your path. You have big things coming for you.

He really has skills!

But this fool doesn't want to get or let alone find a job. I used to be married to this nut and he is a very sad person. If you truly get to know him, you will find out how pathetic he really is. He told me before we got a divorce that I need to accept him playing the cunga because that is the only job that he needs. He doesn't want another job. If he gets one he gets one, if not I better except him playing the cunga. People go down to the reading terminal listening to this nut not knowing his real side. He barely took care of his son's because his son's mother always had her boyfriend buying her son's clothes and getting their hair cuts. This idiot never could keep a job.

Congas cost about a grand. It's not some throwaway instrument.
