Dhol challenge

My last task before the heavens opened here at Gunnersbury Park was to learn to play the Dhol.
I've checked out the rides and food stalls, experienced the live music for myself and thought I ought to be part of the music too.

I caught up with Manish from Serious 7 just before he went on stage with Labh JanJua. He took me through some basic moves and handed over his dhol.

Despite it being a lot heavier than I thought, I didn't do too badly...
