Does anybody play any musical instruments? Anybody play any OBSCURE musical instruments?
I play the Trumpet in my high school senior jazz band, the guitar, the banjo and the tenor banjo. I know Mike played the clarinet, and of course (lol Mike) "...playing kazoo for Bruce Springsteen, I once filled in for Clarence's saxophone solo with kazoo. There wasn't a dry eye in the house."
Tell us! :0)

The kazoo... with Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band. Touring was quite a ride!

I meant what specific type of drum sound.... like a bongo, or a snare, or something else... high, low, etc, does it have range, that sort of thing.

Well, it depends on the size of the drum and wood it is made out of and where the goat skin comes from. They generally have a deep bass note a mid tone and a high pitched slap. Skilled players can get sounds such as cracks and metallic bell like tones out of them.
I still reckon that the best way to get a sense of what a djembe sounds like is to youtube it.
