Tonight San Jose Taiko performed at the Long Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Austin, Texas. It was a high energy display of some incredible rhythm and coordination. If you ever get a chance to see this group perform, jump at the offer. You will be as impressed as I was, I’m sure.
I’ve included some shots I took tonight. Sorry, but there are no shots of the performance itself as photography was prohibited during the show. But the troupe gathered out in the lobby afterwords and allowed the audience to meet and greet them.

I also picked up a copy of their new 35th Anniversary Concert DVD. If you’re interested in seeing them perform, but can’t see them live, pick up a copy of your own.

More cultural entertainment, and had a good time on top of that. The last time I heard those types of drums was at Countries Of The World at DisneyWorld. They sure are loud when right next to them like I was.
Yep. It was a good time. I wish I’d gotten permission to snap some shots during the performance. It was absolutely amazing.
