Ad Hoc Drum Kit, Mabul Island, Borneo, originally uploaded by Rod Edwards.
From my Malaysian adventures, 2008.
This drum kit is made out of some miscellaneous real drum parts, twisted metal, big galon paint pails, and a water tank of some kind.
You can find this drum kit at the ass end of nowhere, right next to the most spectacular scuba diving in the world. This picture is from Uncle Chang’s dive shop and school, located on Mabul Island, right next to the world famous Sippadan Island.
Sippadan is famous for the ridiculous reef wall that surrounds the island, the spectacular coral, and the awesome wildlife. You have to elbow your way through crowds of sea turtles and sharks to keep up with your dive group.
Sippadan is also notable for the fact that Malaysia and the Philippines periodically hold small scale wars over possession of the island. The only inhabitants now are some Malaysian soldiers, who live in the crumbly remains of the island’s resort, which was in use until it was invaded by Philippines, and was shut down after the ensuing hostage crisis.
Anyway, we didn’t get invaded while there, and did enjoy stellar diving and the entertainment implied by this cobbled together drum kit.
