NEW! — Taiko 101 - Taiko History. Depending on when and where you first learned about taiko, you might know some, a lot, or hardly any taiko history! While I'm no expert, I wanted to put something out there that would give at least a start to those looking to understand where taiko has come from - and where it's gone! – Adam Weiner, Tic Tac Taiko
