A little street music

Thought before he started playing that this was some new kind of electrified steel drum. But it’s a Well Hang he’s playing, also known as a Hang Drum or Handpan. Apparently the latest thing for street musicians.



I still like the steel drum. More of a caribbean sound. But this is a very cool instrument, don't you think.

Love these drums, but they're unbelievably expensive!

Are they? Surprised. Wonder how the street musicians can afford them. Guess busking is more lucrative than I remember.

One sold on ebay today for $10,877.00

So, yep, cool as they are, they're definitely a little on the pricey side. :)
