Xylopholks

[elpaletonero]

The BOMB!

[MrLuigi64thegr8]

Lol, saw these guys in the subway about two weeks ago, They switched Cookie Monster for a skunk in sunglasses. XD

[powerpc127]

I was kinda glad when the video was over. It meant I could stop treating my hip like a ride cymbal while I was rockin out with them.

[DianaandherGuitar]

Cookie Monster dropped out of Juliard because it was too boring and not challenging enough. True story.

[royalsteven]

And nobody gave these guys money!

[KenzieBoubt]

I would not be able to empty my pockets fast enough... hahah

[310President]

Only in NY lol

[McGrot]

Those dudes are simply brilliant!

[NoelArtMedia]

Can't really hear the bass, but I can feel it .One of the better xylophone players I've heard. ;-)

[rwk1983]

make my bone hard

[giascle]

One day I had 9 straight hours of class, I hadn't gotten any sleep the night before, and it was one of the coldest days of the year. I was, of course, miserable.

Then I saw these guys.

[wellhowyoudoin]

I'm getting the vibe that Cookie Monster used to play Tenors in Sesame Street Marching Band...

[floatdude]

Cookie Monster has chops, 2 cool.

[JDBW]

-Win calculating machine breaks -

[abermants]

jesus is he seriously doubling on a fucking xylophone?

fuck

[Ecki303]

Somebody knows where to get the cookie monster suite?

[Snaresloth]

@Dmitri8ydna Technique doesn't matter in entertainment.

[lolinhaoliver]

They performed here in São Paulo last week.. so nice!! ♥

[Pyrofries]

It's too bad the cookie monster turned into a skunk, but hey, at least they're still jammin' as fuck!

[mscrissm]

Saw them today on my way home from work. Made my day, hope to see them tomorrow!

[lilpayaso662010]

hahahahahahahahahahahahah!

[imadudeyeahman]

where do you get those costumes? i want one haha

[Dmitri8ydna]

Bad Technique Cookie Monster.

[JBtenors08]

@Dmitri8ydna I'm sure proper mallet technique would be difficult in that outfit lol

But still. Good stuff

[fodera6]

@ISTeslaYT It's called a double bass, not a cello. The violincello is much smaller.

[TheSilverDubber]

I LOVE this video!!

Never fails to make me smile like a loon!!

EPIC!!!

[goatphilososphy]

the drummer a bit fast ?

[OSRADIS]

@goatphilososphy So fast you can't even see him.

[LatteBoy123]

I saw these guys coming home from work today. I have to admit, it pretty much made my day. Bravo!

[kattomba]

i would stand & watch these crazys all day

[minor7b5SM]

What makes it even funnier is that this is EXTREMELY well played jazz with spot on technique!

[housewowie]

So funny!!!!!

[alkalinextrioxconz]

I feel like this could easily be like, Obama and some other famous person not related to the music industry in any way, and no one would ever know.

[Nitnelav1994]

wow, thats just amazing. not only do they play absolutley amazingly, they manage to do it while in those crazy suits. I would give this vid 6 stars if I could. Especially awesome is 1:48 in my opinion.

[Loveadrixoxo]

Lol

[slangyung]

I dare anyone to watch this video and not crack a smile! :) Awesome!!!

[hellkittenproduction]

you aren't going to get many people who can!

[PeazyG420]

[hellkittenproduction]

[ajp42109]

[pianoscantalk]

"charleston capers" by GH Green!

[PlanetMother]

[redDL89]

[Subba23]

[xXxW0LFxXx]

[DeadEnd39]

If I got off the subway and saw this... I'd just yell out: "Our minds! They're being screwed with!" ... and people would laugh. Gotta admit, I love these guys. Making life one big braintease.

[Ioveasy]

if i saw this i would stop and listen until they left.

[NumberNile]

Awesome video! Just a shame you can't hear the bass more, haha.

[tennist0]

I wonder if they've ver teamed up with the naked cowboy?

[tennist0]

the xylophone way overpowers the bass

[MrJummy]

Awesome!

[kitchibd01]

It's the Cookie Monster 4 sure, but who's the Pink Monkey? =P

[lemonrind]

It's funny how in New York City, people can walk by a blue monster playing a xylophone and a pink gorilla playing the bass, without even glancing over.

[redcrayons4me]

I love these guys!! I even added them on myspace :)

[kitchibd01]

[goatydad]

This duo played live on Doing Time with Ron Kuby this afternoon. You can probably get a podcast of the show at air america.

[robitude]

Saw these guys play in Times Square the other day, just awesome! Wished they woulda brought out Cookie Monster for that, but it's gotta be crazy hot in that thing. (Still want to see Cookie Monster do this live sometime...)

[lurkinginthexsjados]

They should play in Toronto, the subway uses the first three notes of the "Sesame Street" intro song to indicate the doors are closing.

[SilverdaleComedy]

This really is a beautiful video!!!

It never fails to put a huge grin on my face! :-)

Cookie Monster's got serious chops!!!

[grapenationCO]

i read on their website that the cops came and talked to them about how dangerous their music was, because it might cause someone to fall onto the tracks!

[midnightbutterfly96]

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RemoRemus]

i cant hear the bass at all. but the xylophone is enough for me.

[Jordiw00t]

[TomsterMusic]

X is for XYLOPHONE!!

That's good enough for meeee!!

FiVe stahhss!

[Dlazybeatbox]

[Dakellymonster]

Yeah New York!

[MissingLink101]

Wouldn't it be great if he didn't know how to play the xylophone at all before....the the suit TRANSFORMED him into a cookie lovin xylophone fiend!!

[ConradoThePirate]

Like the Venom suit, except it is a Cookie Monster outfit that bestows uncanny Xylophone prowess upon whoever dons it.

Damn, I'm making a comic book about that. Copyright 2009, ConradoThePirate.

[miloukoekjes]

It's pretty cool :D than your day gets better!

[avrilsohot009]

aww thats cute:)

[Masteroftrancegirl]

[caboose2red]

lol id do tht if i had a suit also

[ruabs]

jajajaj =)

[krkaufma]

This is why you shouldn't smoke crack.

[IAmTheWafflemaster]

After watching this video I kind of just sat there staring at the screen with a cluster-fuck of emotion, what that emotion was, not the slightest fucking clue.

[yessicaHenaine]

hahahahahah (YY)

[Drakyo]

AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! XD

[francariet2]

dont throw them money

throw cookies and bananas

[gruber105]

the pink gorilla isn't making a fucking sound lol...

[pccbassbone]

Yeah he is. It's just that the xylophone is drowning him out.

[MoJo51289]

Awesome stuff!

[jruludey]

Yes it's fanny

[engelbertschoormans]

I see not a Pink Gorilla & a Cookie Monster instrument beplaying...

And so good!!!

[engelbertschoormans]

This is awesome!!!!!!!!!!! Cool, I see not a Cookie Monster and a Pink Gorilla a instrument played, and so good!!!

[puucc2005]

haha i love it =D

[Research0digo]

this is so cute - I wish more people hadn't just walked by like they were gum stuck on a chair

ANYway, after this, please search 12 bar blues PVC marimba children's orchestra ^_^

[mrjohnnynofear]

"Will play for cookies and bananas!"

[loriscite]

just awesome, thanks!

[Starz00mer]

Here: one Dollar 4 U! :)

and 5*****!

[isaacdess]

These are my favorite panhandlers ever.

[Research0digo]

isaac destructyourselfplease

These were NOT panhandlers.

These were artists that played like you only could in your dreams, and played marvelously. If this were a Paris subway everyone would be stopping (paying respect) and clapping as they left some Francs.

Fact.

[s1lenced]

Nowadays, you pay with Euros in France. Like in most parts of Europre.

Fact.

[Rezza0]

playing xylaphones never looked so cool.

[ShinAkuma21]

i bet u cookie monster had a 3 some with hot chicks after the performance

[Ufosxm]

This video made my day!

[ClaytonCowboy]

Now this is really music!

[sh3ylo]

[MEEVizm]
