[mommyandkeiki]

Very cool body movements that went along with the drumming. Fun fan ending!

[SadlifeProduction]

AKIRA! AKIRA! AKIRA! AKIRA! AKIRA!

[Tr3s3ntos]

I so want to learn this...

Japan is an awesome country!

[squizz222]

This is great! Surprising, as most traditional Japanese music sucks.

[OngakuZukiSan]

@squizz222 I enjoy most of it.

[WristCutGauze]

@squizz222 Enka sucks, and older music, and anything made for the upper class, but this is Taiko so it's festival stuff. Made for plebians like us. It's more understandable.

[mortdepeur13]

yep :( soo great . . .

[rolfeder]

Reminds me of the great film, Drumline.

[RandomNess522]

[plzforgiveme987]

LOL around 1:00 that was lol! all of a sudden its a funny beat haha

[paganspixie]

it's interesting to think that once the drums were used to encourage fighters in wars and now people play them to entertain which is why i love it!

[Tohluse]

@letsbeanime

FFFFF sorry I had a stupid moment.

[danagirl23]

wow... i'm starting to learn taiko drumming now and it's fun to see what the experts can do! :)

[Harleygirl007]

I'm also learning now, I'm getting into a group. :) If you're interested in it, look for "Kodo", it's the name of a group, they're f*cking awesome!!

[foldedcrane]

This is a high school group called wadaiko obiki. Also check out Ondekoza, Soh Daiko, San Francisco Taiko dojo, and San jose Taiko Dojo. Yamato is really badass, but VERY complex rhythms. Enjoy your training.

[Harleygirl007]

Thanks dear, we just had our big concert called Sakura, there were hundreds of people, I loved it :)

[Ithranna]

This is really good sound for a DV, btw. I'm surprised that a boom wasn't being used.

[sniffumevoli]

that is so beautiful. and the sound quality is great! those things are loud and deep. my camera would never be able to take it.

[alegria101]

The guy with the bell cracks me up! He's so enthusiastic!

[McKleeny]

that kick ass

[tedtug]

the Japanese culture is so great

[Vichama]

Needs more cowbell.

[sidian3]

LOL awesome!!

[FILIPINOY79]

@Vichama I have a fever and the only perscription is more cowbell!

[FuzzyPotato]

i've played simple things on taiko and even that in a group sounds great

[tokazar]

LOVE IT!!!!!

[iancipperly]

Totally weird! I was there too! Visiting from Cali. I loved the crazy guy with the little bell. I got a portion from a different angle on my page too.

[amourimmortel2]

lol! It just wouldn't have been as good if he wasn't soooo into that little bell. : )

[keyakikid]

How bizarre...I was in the park watching this that day too! This is Wadaiko Obiki (和太鼓御響) a group consisting almost entirely of children from Chiba!

[AOEGuy]

this is amazing!

[BaunilhaBaunilha]

sugeeeeeeeee...
