Drumming
FOUND by Luke in Boulder, Colorado
I found this picture in an alley behind a head shop in Boulder. It was cut out of a piece of glossy photo paper and was neatly leaned against a soda can. On the back it says "GET DRUMMED!"

Is it national photograpy week again on found magazine?
This find reminds me of an episode on the good old "Alfred hitchkock Hour" where a young Doctor desperately tries to pinpoint and isolate the source of an anthrax epidemic.
It turns out that the source of the epidemic is an animal skinned bongo drum.

Oh, and dude needs new socks. And a haircut, while we're at it.

The lad looks startled. "Honestly, Officer, I never shit over there. That's not MY toilet paper under the bush." (Red light in background is a cop car BTW.)

I think that, technically, bongo drums come in pairs. So this drum is something else. Anyone?

(Aside from the fact that some young girls in the audience always think that "the drummer is something else!".)

Yep, you're right, Librarian, Bongos do come in pairs.
Must be a djembé of some sorts.

I'm glad I can't hear or smell this picture.

And from a drummer stand point, it looks like a bongo that has been torn from its twin.

@Librarian...Well, it's definitely not a "bong". Maybe it's an "o"? As in the sort of comment many people feel like directing at demented and tiresome solo drummers, "O, shut up".

Give it up, dude...rest of the therapeutic drumming circle already went home.

Full moon...all the alternative lifestyles come out of the bushes.

@Hiplainsdrifter ... good one!

(Even if he ain't levitating, he surely is high.)

love in the first degree
What's that in the brambly bushes behind him? Another drum? Soccer ball? Motorcycle helmet?

Pretty sure this is his Dad:

Take that bongo away from him - instead give him a big pile of sand and a hammer.

He's getting in touch with his animal self

Don't quote me on this, but I think he might be stoned.

I'm sorry but I have to comment on the American Apparel add. Does anyone else find "slippery stripes" gross? Come on!

I've been at that party. That's the look the drummer gives when somebody falls in the fire.

I bet he's playing the theme song for "Clutch Cargo."

"Just keep playing," he told himself. "Just keep playing and ignore what's going on over there..."

"Louie, Louie"--best song in the world to drum to, especially on your own.
