Steam powered fire engine blues - 1894 rhythm machine!

Yes my friends, today I found myself a new drummer! Built in 1894 and still alive and well (after some TLC). A fire engine powered by steam, drawn by horses to wherever the fire was.. An awesome old machine with a laidback cool rhythm perfect for some blues! Playing a mid to late 1930’s National Duolian or Triolian, can’t tell ’cause the neck was gone and it’s got nickel plating instead of paint. Nice vintage blues combo!! The fire engine is owned by a fine museum called Arvesundsmuséet and a team called Jerngenget did the restoration! Thanks for letting me jam some blues with it!
