this drummer looks cool but he cant keep a solid conjunto beat

This is Anthony....ex-drummer for Invicto.  This drummer jams.....he's got everything going.  It's real hard putting everything  you've got into your music and staying on beat.  Even drummers that play straight conjunto can sometimes fall off.  So, please don't criticize unless you can play like a tempo machine yourself.

OK anonymous....evidently you didn't you didn't read the posting correctly....I said this is Anthony Gomez....old drummer for Invicto. You're referring to Anthony Trevino from the the Hometown Boys who by the way is a monster! Anyways...I guess you also haven't heard of conjunto progressive. This is just a style that this band chooses to play. Baraja De Oro....y'all are doing a great job! Tony...

 OK....Los Monarcas...Los Cuatro Aces....Grupo Invicto....Impozzible....Los Dominantes....are all Houston based conjuntos that don't sound anything like Corpus or each other where all of the Corpus bands do (mind you, they all swap musicians)....so how do you justify that comment that was made....Tejano Boys.....Los Dos Gilbertos....Badd Boys Del Valle.....completely different end of the spectrum.....sound nothing like Corpus.....EVERYONE has their own style

And we all wonder why conjunto can't move forward.!.!

And by the way...everyone in conjunto sounds like someone in conjunto. Also if you listen to Boni's demo...he didnt sing with the raspy voice..wonder where he got it from!

Listen to who you like and leave the rest for the others. If you do not like the way someone plays thats your problem. We all have different preferences and taste!

Conjunto is a drug..Get your fix!!

if you are trying to say that boni sings like jhonny cruz,you are mistaken.boni is a great singer ,he found his character and put it to play.oh and he sings on key.without boni no jhonny cruz

Did I say Johnny Cruz? No I did not. My point was that they all are inspired by someone. John will be the first to tell you that Boni is/was one of his major musical influences.

As for the no Boni no John comment...lets be real...no Angel Flores/Tony De La Rosa = alot of no conjuntos...again all inspired by someone!!

Also..the Boni/John comments have all been posted and said before. Move on. I personally am happy to have both to listen and jam to. Same for Ruben De La Garza and Los Dos Gilbertos. Same as to when David formed LTA and we still have T5. The more conjuntos the better off we are!!
