Taiko is awesome


So I dunno how many of yoose doodes know what Taiko drumming is (see videos and pics). But its totally rad. Anyways, last year when mum and dad were over we went to the Kokura Taiko Gion festival which is basically this massive festival with about A KABILLION of these groups of people with drums on wheels going around the streets and eventually culminating in the park, its super loud and chaotic and happy, thus I was loving it! So I thought "I wanna do this!!!" So found out that the Florence and the Sam were in a group with the So. Sooo I and some others are now going to this groups practice once a month in Kokura to practice the art of Taiko drumming, its a lot harder than it looks, there is a definitive technique to it, but hopefully under the guidance of Taiko-master So I will be aiiight. I just cant wait for the festival in summer!!!

I know, I know its an average video.......
