Walking around in the city streets a couple days back, i saw a bunch of teens performing a drum line sort of thing on buckets. Of course they were asking for money and such but their chops were decent and they could play some complicated things really fast. I wonder if these guys have had any sort of formal training or if they just picked stuff like that up playing on the buckets.

Any one else see stuff like this before? It's pretty entertaining although I don't think it's legal without a street performing license. Has anyone actually gone out and done something like this? I would think it'd be pretty good money.

Holy... That's just insane!
Do you know if he plays the drums at all?

[AvengedDrummer]

I dont know if he does or not, thats the only video I've seen of him.

I've seen a lot of bongo/ djembe drumers on the streets of Perth and Fremantle. Friday night we have late night shopping in our city and a bunch Brazilian street fighters perform in the town square with a tribe of drummers backing them on. It's pretty cool to watch.

I saw that one time in chicago, it was pretty cool I watched for a little bit, but didn't have any money on me

Someone needs to buy that man a snare drum!

I don't see too much of that in Indiana but whenever I go to Chicago I always see a couple of those drumming acts and other acts like dancing or human statues.
