We’re gonna try to play some musical instruments that we’ve never played or seen. Welcome to “Good Mythical More.” Yes! We love music. We love playing music. Music is just, Music is life. And life is love. Good. Shiny. Where did these come from? Did you buy these musical instruments from unopened packages? You know what this is. We know what this is. I have never used one of these. Would you call this a glockenspiel? Maybe? I can look inside of there. I don’t think it’s a glockenspiel. I know the sound that it makes. You know the name of it? I have a name for it. But now that you’ve used like a name like that, I’m like, well, maybe it’s called different things. I don’t know what it is. I know the sound that it makes when you get it right. There’s something shaky inside of there. You try. Well daggum. I thought… It’s tighter. Yeah, it’s never gonna go against that. It’s never gonna go against it. But maybe it will. Oh. But it’s not hitting that, but I don’t think it needs to. So basically. It’s shaking that and that’s what’s making the noise. Yeah, yeah. So like, you wait, you wait. In fact, there’s that famous song. What is that famous song? There’s lots of songs that use this, but it’s one part right at the beginning it’s just like, on a little bit of a measure and the guy’s just sitting there waiting and he’s just like. Oh god. Well, you wanna throw something over there for me to bend over and pick up? Yeah, let me wipe this down and I’ll throw it over there for you to get it. Okay. Go get that. I’m gonna go get this. That’s never not funny, right? Nobody here laughed. Okay, so go ahead and rotate the wooden box a little bit. Oh, oh. Oh. What do you mean? You’re supposed to be able to rotate it in different ways to change the sound of it. But I think you’re just taking it off right now. Making it longer. See if it changes it. Nope. There you go, okay. Oh. Yep, and then if you do like halfway, like that, now. Slightly different. Slightly different. Snake. Almost silent. It’s called a vibra slap percussion instrument. Vibraslap. Vibraslap. Vibraslap. That is cool. Next. Is this the next one? This looks like something that you mount. It’s a whistle of sorts. Like you put it on the wall and then you… I think it might be a nose whistle. What? Well, you got pore be gone. Yeah. I do have a lot of that on my face. Here, you do it then. Put it on your nose. What’s a nose whistle? It says blow air through the top hole with your nose. Place your mouth on the bottom hole and change your mouth shape to adjust the pitch. Oh god. Try like you’re whistling. You almost got it. I think my mustache is hurting me. Wipe it down and do it. You’ve blown yourself all over it. You gotta get it dead tight on the lip part. I think you gotta seal it off a little bit. Yep. That’s it. Yeah. That’s better Squealing like a pig, boy. He got it. You gonna be in a band someday. Well, what do you play, boy? This is a Vietnamese nose whistle. I played a nose whistle. I bet you somebody who could play that would be absolutely crazy. Like, it would be so impressive. It’s pretty good. You got pretty good pretty fast. But I only got one note out of it. I think you can get multiple. It really sounds no different than this. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Lemme see that next one. Oh, I like this. I’ve had this. Oh, this is cool. Wait, I’ve had one of these. Rhett owns one of these, don’t you? I have one of these. Or did we have one on the show? I don’t know, but I have one. We did this in like Wonder Hole or something. This is the instrument that you gave me when we were making music out of weird things. Oh yeah. You had a shruti box and you gave me that. Do you know this one? This isn’t the shruti box, is it? No, no, no, no. It’s called a palm pilot type thing. It’s got a stylus. Stylus is a hint to what its name is. Synthestylist. Synthestyler. Style daddy. Starts with style. Style, style board. Style tron 3000. Style man. Style boy. Stylo. Style-o-matic. Stylo keyboard, stylo board. Stylophone. It said it on there the whole time. Oh, okay. Cool. Rhett could have just read it and told me, but he was in his zone. Keep that. That’s good. Ooh. Look at this. You can only play one note at a time. The shruti box is the best instrument that I own. Oh my. Oh, that sounds mysterious. That’s a horror movie situation. It’s got two holes here. And then if you put it against your mouth. How did you know this? I don’t know, dude. Can I try it? You’re not even supposed to do that, are you? You don’t have to use your mouth. You could use your hand or anything to cover and uncover. It looks better when you’re doing it with your mouth though. Yeah. Put it up to your mouth. No, you have to cover and uncover. Put it closer to your mouth. Put your lips around it. Put your lips around it. You’re not doing it. Now send it deeper. Hold on. If two people do it at the same time, it makes a different noise. Nope. Why are you hitting it so damn hard? God. Oh. That changes the note too. It actually doesn’t. Mm-mm. Put your mouth on the end. See, I can side mouth it. Hit it, strike. This is the best thing. Now do it, but do what you were doing before where you just waved it around. Because that sounded like a horror movie when you just waved it like that. Real nice and slow. Uh-oh. Catch the musical instrument with granddad. Ow. Oh, you broke! No! You lost it. You lost the head of the mallet! No! Uh oh, Link. You might have to bend over and get it. Yeah. Missed opportunity. Yep. You stick it up here? It makes no noise. Doesn’t vibrate at all anymore. It makes absolutely no noise. Okay, that’s a bit disturbing. Okay, let’s go on. The name of that instrument is, Pipe boy. It’s based on the way it sounds. Wah wah. Yeah, yeah. A wah wah pipe. Wah wah tube, yeah. Wah wah tube. This is very nice. Very nice. That’s good. That’s good. I should have brought in my double flute. Oh god. Yes. We need this. This is from the teaser. You saw this and you were like, I’m not clicking away until I see this puppy. Here it is. It’s like a wind chime? Oh. Well you just broke it. This it? Each one of these has a note on it. Maybe you blow it? Oh. Oh, watch. Hey. I think you grab the bottom like this. Grab like this. See what my hands are doing? Do that. Oh, you know what you can do? Look, you would keep control over it, like. Pretty good, right? Is that working? Guys. You think that’s good? This is an instrument that we have someone here who can play it, who’s gonna blow your mind. It’s gonna be the best performance of all time. Oh my goodness. Is this a Davin special ability? Did you make that? I did not make this. No. No, no, no, no. We bought it off eBay. Let me get it back the way it was. Well get out there and play. You can take a seat. I wanna watch. You take my seat. No, you guys actually kind of did it. So it is a percussion instrument where you just shake it. And these are, I believe this is a full octave, so. It’s usually not in a stand. So lemme see if I can take this off. Oh, you can take the whole thing off and just play ’em each. So usually one person holds it and you play it like. Oh, so it’s like a bell choir. You’d have each person holding one of those? Yeah. And we’d all be in charge of something. What’s it called, Davin? This is angklung. This is Sundanese, Indonesian musical instrument from the Sunda region. And you likened it to an instrument in the US, kids… Yeah, so you guys like, learned recorder in school. This is what we learned instead of a recorder. Really? This is way better than a recorder. And would you play it as a choir? Well, yeah, but we never gotta to that part. So you hold it steady in one hand and then you shake the bottom of it. Let’s not do it. Let’s do a tune. Okay. What does that mean? Like, let’s play a little melody. All right. Then stop. Like, play a couple notes and stop. Let’s see if these notes are gonna work together. Well, this is the C note. So we all each have a different note. Yeah. I got the B. Yeah. So play yours. You need a different one. So you wanna hold it here. Yeah. Let’s play C and G. We’ll play a country song. Okay. Which country? Hey! Indonesian country, man. We’re gonna play some Indonesian country. Okay, so here we go. I’m gonna give you a G, Link. And I’ve got a D. This doesn’t sound quite right. I mean, we did get this off eBay only for a hundred bucks. Hundred bucks? Okay, we’re gonna play the blues. Link, you’ve got the C. So Davin, you’re the G. So you play, you play, and then you play, and then you play, and then I play, okay? I have no idea what this song is. This is just like me in school all over again. Just following the pattern. You look lost. I do kind of look lost, yeah. We made a wonderful song! Yeah, we kind of did, yeah. Wonderful song. But yeah, you guys, this is like, a very easy instrument to play. You guys basically nailed it, Right, all you gotta do is shake it. Yeah. All you gotta do is shake it. Yeah. Thank you, Davin. Thank you, Davin. You need me to tie your shoe? No, my shoes are tied. Come back out here. Lemme tie your shoe. My shoes are tied. Oh, I see what you’re trying to do. Tie your shoe. Okay. Yeah, no. Sorry, Davin. Is that our last one? No! We have one more. We have a tie. It does clip. It has a clip at the top. Yeah, and then you just chug, chug, chug, with your fingernails. So yeah. So I guess you do clip. Do we have the other thing? Does it have a mallet? Yeah, this. We should have thimbles. Oh, yes. Put ’em on your fingertips. That’s what it would sound like. It’s like a washboard, but it’s also. While you’re waiting on that, I gotta tell you about something. Unfortunately, we did not receive thimbles. Okay. Maybe spoons. So Link and I discovered something and our friends helped us discover something in New York City. And that was these foot massages. You know when you like go to New York City and you can like sit down in a chair, in a room? Chinese foot massage? Chinese foot massage and like, your clothes are on, right? And you just got your feet out. And everybody’s in the room and it’s all hours of the night. So our friends sort of introduced us to that. It’s the best thing. And then when Link and I went to New York City and we recorded our adventures, which you can watch later this month on mythicalsociety.com, one of the things we did is we went and we got a foot massage, because we’ve really gotten into these. So when I got back, Really gotten into it. Because I’ve been having a little foot trouble. My right foot’s been a little bit tight. You got a little of that fasciitis. And so I was like, it was the other night, and I told Jessie, I was like, “Let’s go get a foot massage. Like let’s do a date that involves getting a foot massage.” So I start looking for foot massage places in LA that say foot massage, and are like highly rated, you know? We’re talking 4.7 and up. Where’s this going? And so we go to this place that’s highly rated and we go in and we made an appointment. It was that legit, like called ahead and made an appointment. And they’re like, oh, you’re here for the foot massage. Yeah. And they’re like, foot massage? And I was like, yes, foot massage. Should we go upstairs? And I’m like, where are the chairs? Like where are the New York City chairs? And I go into just a room and it’s just like, oh, this is like regular massage. Just like massage tables in a room, two of them, like couples. So Jessie and I go in there and we just take our shoes and socks off and kind of roll our pants up and like sort of sit on the thing, right? Wait for our foot massage. And then the ladies come in there and they’re like, there was a language barrier. I’ll just say that. But they were like, they started grabbing at their clothes. And I kind of took that as, you need to take your clothes off. And I was like, that’s not what I was after. So we took our clothes off and it turns out, well, so then they start massaging other parts of our body that are not our feet, and eventually get to the feet and do the feet and put oil on our feet. And then they were like, they just walked outta the room. All of a sudden it was like they did this thing on our feet and then it was like they walked outta the room. Jessie and I get up. And so Jessie gets on the floor and she’s got this oil on her feet. She starts sliding all around on the floor. And the ladies come back in and like, there’s Jessie like sliding all around the floor with her thong. Oh yeah. I can give a visual for that. Just like this. And they’re like, “No, no, no!” It’s like, and then they gave us the international symbol for the massage is not over, please sit back down. So why’d they leave? Because, I don’t know, they were taking a break and they came back and they finished the massage. You don’t take a break in the middle of a massage. In LA, foot massage doesn’t mean foot massage. It means foot massage and all the other massage at the same time. But they also do the feet. And I don’t know where you can get just the Chinese foot massage where you get that. But the name of the place was foot massage? No, but it said foot massage very big on a sign. Like I came in, it was like the biggest thing said foot massage. But then as I was leaving, it said foot massage and then underneath foot massage, it had every other body part listed. What? Did anybody know this? This is how it works. Is this a Korean establishment? Did you ask? Well, what did you ask for? We called and said we want the foot massage because it’s like 45 bucks for an hour, which is like, basically like the same price as New York. So I was like, okay, this is the same thing. It said foot massage. I didn’t read the fine print. I didn’t have to do that. Every other body part. And then we walked in, she said, “Foot massage?” And we were like, yes. What part of town did you say? Where were you? That one was in Pasadena. Okay. Well I mean, no, yeah. A lot of them are on east side, like Arcadia, Monterey Park, like in in that area. So you can get the kind that they have in New York City. Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The OC has some. I’m sure they have them in Pasadena, but it’s a little bit different of a thing, but yeah. But if it says foot massage big and you go in, how come they’re giving them a full massage? That’s weird. That’s weird. You start looking around and you see that this is the way. Most Los Angeles establishments do that. And why did they leave? I don’t know. Here’s the thing. The lesson I learned is when the ladies leave, don’t immediately get up. They haven’t washed your feet off, so that you won’t slip all over the ground. Yeah. Don’t do that. Don’t get up, oiled up.
