xylophone drum set

This is one of the coolest street musicians I've ever seen. He has a several xylophones set up and plays them like a drum kit. Unfortunately, it's windy so you can't hear him all that well. Another cool thing, is that somehow he folds everything up and carries it on his bike with him!

Update - I found out his name is Masahiro Tatematsu

I did some digging and found out his name is Masahiro Tatematsu. I think there are more videos of him if you search his name.

Also not trying to be rude... but according to Wikipedia, "The term (xylophone) may be used generally, to include all such instruments, such as the marimba and balafon or, more specifically, to refer to an orchestral instrument of somewhat higher pitch range than the chromatic marimba."

It's merely semantic. I'm not saying these are not marimbas. I'm merely stating that the broad definition of xylophone includes marimbas.

[TheMysteriousSage]

That's a marimba.

@MuroranJohn haha in your face Joverboss, trying to be a smart ass troll.

Damn I hate why people are so know it all about music, just enjoy it and yeah, if you're gonna run your mouth at least check wiki 1st. x)

@MuroranJohn not tryin to be rude, but he's right... those are marimbas, or at least a derivative of a marimba. not a xylo.

@HunterMann

vibes are made of metal right. but xylophones are made of wood as marimbas are, i play those instruments.

and what he plays isnt neither a xylophone or a marimba because it sounds like crap.
