The "Hang Drum" is quite young by instrument standards...it was created somewhere around 2000. This Drum is not your typical bongo, nor is it a regular steel drum...with a pan like top and bottom, the Hang Drum resembles a flying saucer. Yet, however alien the Hang drum seems, once the drum is played one wishes to embrace it's strange essence.
lol. cool vid.
neat drum though
Patchouli. Hippies stink like patchouli. I'd probably put up with it for a chance to try out that drum. I'm sure you'd build up thumbs of steel after practicing with it for a few weeks.
Redneck Hippies!
hahahah! yes i can totally picture that.
I agree with acl. Any "budding" musicain should have an opened mind lest ye whither and die from lack of inspiration. Timing is something that's learned OVER time. It requires practice, muscle training and feeling, which I wouldn't necessarily expect even a "budding" musicain.
The hippy factor does, however, belittle the expose' for some.....as a stand alone instrument, it may be perfect for the ears for some, a great meditation tool for others....for me, to hear it with the Jew's harp, or a goddamn digeridoo, like so many wannabe nature-boys love to adopt, to call themselves musicians, or enthusiasts, or experts on aboriginal culture, or as a pretentious affectation to accompany their little idyllic lifestyles in the land of misery, near the valley of suffering (pacific northwest).....IS retarded. Have known so many folks, so many "musicians"....this guy reminds me of the deadest of the dead-heads.....this viddy, "Morning of parihaka Peace festival. Early morning jam sesion"(hippies can't spell)......The Parihikan attendees??? Such good intentions....http://www.parihaka.com/Festival/2007/Festival.aspx
All I can see is a buncha anti-depressants, peace-at-all-costs, symbol addicts, getting together to share in a few days of B-O and wheat-grass trots.......
BAAHAHHAHHAHHAA!!!!
