traditional show


The show began with some music. Drums, wooden marimba type instrument and this cool bamboo pipe instrument. this woman was amazing. As she wiggled the pipes they made both a wind sound as well as a block type sound.
So- celebrations and weddings and events are usually decked out here in Malaysia. I have no idea what this is used for....perhaps wedding pictures...but WOW. Seriously- right down to the wedding car....very gaudy,elaborate, often chintzy.....wow!
