Amazing... the awe-inspiring power of these thuderous drums must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated.

The yelling is part of the show. It's to give your team energy. Taiko is all about the energy, guys. And hearing it from the crowd gives us all the more energy to pound it out on those drums.

Taiko takes a lot of work. Take it from me; I'm a taiko drummer myself. And I throughly enjoy listening to this. Makes me want to pick up my bachi and start practicing some more. (And white, black, asian, it doesn't matter. If you feel the energy, you can do it just as well and with just as much feeling.)

This is so amazing to watch this!! as a Taiko player myself I can appreciate the hard work that went into doing this! Awesome work guys... this got me excited about Taiko all over again!

thank you so much for sharing this video... It is my best medicine... Ki really works when you understand how to direct and re-direct electro-magnetic energies with sound (wave and matter)... with love

I miss the performances of Sacramento Taiko Dan. I always have to work when they perform these days. Watching this on Youtube is good, but being there is awesome!

soooo... south asian indians are not the only culture to use the conch shell... how beautiful and together we should be

From the group's website: "Tsunami" Performed proudly with explicit permission by Grand Master Seiichi Tanaka. Fushu Daiko is honored to be considered worthy by Sensei Tanaka to perform this prestigious piece.

In that case, they have my blessing :)

[califrogg]

Did they get Tanaka-sensei's permission to perform his piece? I've only seen it done by the SF Taiko Dojo.
