There was always music in our home. My mom and my dad loved music.

It wasn't until years later that I found out that they were actually Black Panther meetings. -- Queen Latifah
I was in a Montessori school. There was a drum circle with all the kids passing around a little bongo drum. I was the last person in the circle, and when it got to me I played 'Shave and a Haircut, Two Bits' - in front of all the parents. Blew the crowd away at five years old. -- Jack White
I have no idea what a high school party looks like. I was just with my friend, and we were walking down Venice and there was this gathering of people playing Bongo drums, and so after dinner we sat down with them and played Bongo drums for a while.

If it's me and yer granny on bongos, it's the Fall. -- Mark E. Smith
