I watch this as much as Michael below... Love it - brings back some happy and sad memories. Thank you, everyone in Famoudou's circle; I couldn't be there.

El mejor vídeo de percusión africana que veo en mucho tiempo, el sentimiento de fiesta, la diversión, el canto... un buen ejemplo de todo lo que su cultura alberga!

[@Uzoma74]

This is a great video, thanks for posting.
I especially like the brother in the white shirt dancing behind Billy Konate at the 6:58 mark. Hillarious!

I love this giving of water to the drummers. Is that some tradition of this dance?

[@bakarykora6305]

YewandeAfrica The giving of water is very symbolic in African cultures. Water is life indeed!!! a gesture of appreciation not only to quench thirst but with great gratitude.

[@dixonbucks01]

No. She simply sensed they needed some water and she decided to give them water while carrying on the rhythm of the beats.
