I meant to say, my mom-in-law is playing maracas in the film.

My husband's mom was the girl shaking the marimbas with Reg and the Queens, and we just discovered this hilarious clip. She is 82 years old today and still plays her marimba in her condo in Sarasota Florida! From the whole family, thanks for a great laugh.

LOL that was funny!!! Very strange i'll have to admit but HIGHlarious!!

[BillyBughead]

And I've seen this done for vintage Charleston footage and a variety of dancehall music...

Gotta a chance to play with the bass players son, who also plays upright bass, but is a more accomplished blues guitar player..That cat is nuts!!---you did a fantastic job with the video!!!KUDOS!!

[blackturtleus]

That was strange!

[BillyBughead]

lol well in the original you hear the marimbas, and then the guy starts flailing his bass but you don't hear a thing from his instrument. So I had to help him out a bit lol

I'll bet there's a blackturtleus song concept in there SOMEWHERE ;-)

[suburbanmom]
