Title: Can you "Hang"

Just Fascinating. The "Hang" (pronounced Hung) is similar to a steel drum, but the sound is all its own.

Good luck finding one; They are in high demand.
The manufacturer PANArt is located in switzerland, and they only accept orders by mail.

Another alternative is the Hapi, but its not quite the same:

that they call the "Halo" Looks and sounds strikingly similar.
