Can anyone tell me what the name of instrument being played in the percussion section on the upper level? It looks like a giant horn-type instrument, but looks like the player is playing it like a guira/guiro/scratcher. This band is on fire, for real.
As good as they sounded, this is just a shadow of how good a steel pan band sounds live. The music literally goes through you. There is nothing like a live steel pan band. If you have heard one steel pan drummer live and thought that was good, this look like close to 100 musicians and all of them are right on.
I just want to say I stumbled across this a couple years ago and I KEEP coming back to it. Something about steel drums resonates in my soul (despite my South African heritage) I'll never forget this band nor this footage as long as I live. This is always the final party tune I listen too.
That was...awesome! Truly spectacular in-sync performance. Would have loved to hear it live. I'm amazed that they all could do such a long, and varied, routine without getting tired. The beat and joy of the play carried them though.

Wow, the best Caribbean music ever; I get goosebumps and my eyes fill with tears just to remember growing up in the Caribbean; greetings from Los Angeles, California! !
At old as you are by now, using "sickest" isn't a slang that should be in your vocabulary. That's for kids these days that don't understand it is a negative connection, not a positive one.
@@Phaota if you do the math, you'd realize that "sick" as part of colloquial vocabulary is well within the bounds of someone with 30 ish years of musical experience. Means I was in high school in the early 90s. As in, I grew up listening to punk and a little band called "Beastie Boys" who have a tiny album named "Ill Communication". But sure, bud. I'll go check myself due to my advanced age.
@@llamapicante "Sick" wasn't used in the 90s like it has become today. I never said you were of an "advanced age", just that you are old enough not to be using the off-slang of kids today. In the case of the Beastie Boys song, the term was used as a negative, as in "Got To Straighten My Thoughts, I'm Thinking Too Much Sick Sh*t".
