Shakira Performs Did It Again with Drum Dancing

Shakira performs "Did It Again" on "Dancing with the Stars" on October 13, 2009, featuring some great drum dancing with Asian drums. It's always great to see Shakira's moves, but it added an interesting dimension to see the drummers moving along with their drumming - seems like it would be called drum dancing.


The drums at the beginning of the song look like talking drums:

The drums shown during most of Shakira's performance (2-headed drums on wooden stands) look like Japanese taiko drums or Chinese thunder drums. A video of Shakira performing "Did It Again" on Jimmy Kimmel shows drums like marching band drums or tabor drums.


What kind of drums do you think were used in Shakira's performance of "Did It Again" on Dancing with the Stars?
