Here is yet another trip down memory lane:
An enormous red oak tree we sawed up back in 2000. Good times.
I still have the truck.
We saw Kodo together - thing is, you don't so much hear Kodo as feel the drumming reverberating in your chest. Also good times.
PLAY IT LOUD!
Edit: Here is a picture of a djembe I turned out of that massive red oak. I have never put a head on it, for reasons. I also made some giant taiko drums out of yellow pine trees that were blown over in hurricane Fran in 1996, but I can't find any pictures of them.
Edit.2 - perhaps this will clarify the confusion:
That is my dog standing next to the red oak djembe shell.
