    Such a strong and palpable emotional connection between yMusic, Ben, and his song, and most importantly the audience - this particular partnership communicates and connects on an emotional level. Bring on being capable of connecting emotionally through music, and not the sinister "anything!"

I'm kidding of course, I don't really care but I thought it was just funny that they have all those musicians and no one can hit the snare?! ;)

      +cgilmartin Correct. Not only that, but before that his hand isn't even on the face of the cajon, so it couldn't possibly be making a snare sound. If you hit the side of a cajon it just makes a flat wood smacking noise.
