Unusual bamboo instrument
URL describes it as panpipes, but it is nothing like that. Guy unpacks his bag of bamboo pipes, and appears to be about to fit it all together, but suddenly starts to play it. Puts Blue Man Group and their plastic pipes to shame.

they're called gilo stones.
I have something of a bug up my ass about the fucking Blue Man Group, since From Scratch were using PVC tuned percussion somewhat before them.

BMG may prefer "closed-cell foam rubber paddles" but they are correctly played with jandals (i.e. thongs, flip-flops).
