flickering pictures

This has been one of my favourite YouTube videos for ages now — six drummers wait until an elderly couple leaves their apartment to walk the dog, then breaks in and proceeds to turn each of their rooms into a distinct and remarkable musical instrument. Truly odd and wonderful, and I never did figure out what country it was from.

Some other neat videos of people hitting things in a musically pleasing fashion…

• Seven young’uns with a bunch of mikes, a sound board and a Jeep Cherokee that they slap, whack, click and slam to make music: link (Thanks Fatts!)
• Brazilian band with a dedicated rubber-duckie player: link
• Best drummer under ten years old you’ll ever see: link
