About me:

I have been rocking the traders 18 years now. The truth is that I met Brad when I was just a logo with no place to rest my head. Even though I can't even move my arms, the boyz at the rhythm traders gave me a reason to exist. They plastered me on drums, t-shirts, hats, and bumperstickers. Now, I am bongoman, your go-to guy for anything about drums. We are YOUR neighborhood independent drumshop, and part of the FIVE-STAR Drum Shops network, where drummers still hang out, kids still dream (that's all of us, ya hear) , and rhythms get shared. It's all we know. I do most of the P.R - you can see I pimp my animated body to whoever cares. I've got a crew. Brad runs the place; Sarge knows the "policy"; Bryan plays with wet goatskins; and Mario,.... he's too geeky for the sales floor so we stash him in front of his computer and make him answer the nerdiest of customer questions. Alex has "Animal" tatooed on his forearm, and James doesn't dance. Check us out at www.rhythmtraders.com or on YouTube www.youtube.com/user/rhythmtraders or come see us at 3904 NE MLK Jr. Blvd., Portland, OR 97212 TEL: 503-288-6950

Who I'd like to meet:

Single multicolored logo, over 18, gender and race unknown, seeking fun and friendship. Please, no drummer jokes, and no I'm not homeless.
