LA samba bateria forming (update)

Forwarded email:

World-famous drummer Carlinhos Pandeiro de Ouro is teaching percussion downtown this summer.
The bateria is taking great shape and we're expanding classes to 3 nights a week! Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays at 8:30PM through Sept 5, with a big performance planned for September 5. It's all free. We hope to recruit the best players around LA to make a fantastic batucada. This is a great opportunity to meet new sambistas from around town and sharpen your playing. Please forward this email to all Brazilian percussionists and dancers you know. (For dancers, there's a great dance studio to rehearse in, with full length mirrors and a sprung floor.)
