Slap that washboard bass. Boy did you get some standout shots at polka time. V

Raymond,


Actually, yes, he is playing a broom as a percussion instrument.

He has a washboard attached to a wooden stool and uses the broom handle as a striker to "scratch" percussion on the washboard and also will stomp the handle onto the stool in time with the drum.

Considering that this polka band's "musical director" uses a toilet plunger to direct his "orchestra", it really doesn't seem strange at all.

It's pretty cool to see and hear.
