it's a tin drum. the guys don't want to ever grow up. which explains the painfully severe lack of balls they're demonstrating.

They're leprechauns, they don't tend to have balls or grow up. However, I'm not interested in the video, or the people in it or the song that they're playing. I just think that the drum is 'buzzin' and 'mint' and I would like to get my hands on one. I therefore would like to know wtf it is called and who makes them.

it's just a box. take any box with approximately similar volume, tape a mic inside it, and start hitting it. it'll sound just as bad. like a plastic trash can.

a suitcase is a tried and much cooler alternative. better sounding too.

I have used the back of a guitar to similar effect but after a while, bits start falling off inside. I beg to differ though and you haven't asked my blooming question. Can't you just say 'I don't know', or are you incapable of making such an admission?

I am.


but it's still just a random box with a mic taped into it. the tape's silver colored, I can tell even that with a 99% certainty. it always is with these things.

Sorry, I thought you were being facetious. The 'drum' in the video has some kind of logo on the bottom which led me to believe it was some kind of funky acoustic gig drum.
