"Hang Drums"

[Greyshades]

I was looking at these with my drummer today. Thought it was very cool. This fella Manu Delaga is ridiculously good with this drum. It's pronounced "Hung" or "Hong" drum. Meaning, Hand Drum. Very similar to Steel Drums, but taken a step further.

Very cool!
Notice the shirt says "Metal Music"? Gives new meaning to the concept.
