The "engine room," or rhythm section of each steel band, includes at least one conventional drum kit, tumba drums, maracas and "irons"-scrapped car-brake drums hit with metal rods. The engine room sets the tempo, the panmen follow, thumping and reverberating, and the North Stand, a rather rickety structure of standing-room-only bleachers erected especially for the competition, explodes with energy-the wooden planks bow precariously as they're rhythmically pounded in unison by the feet...
