- The washable, playable, drum-kit T-Shirt
- Tap the drums on this shirt and they actually play through the embedded speaker
- All drums on the shirt are playable. 7 Different drum sounds in all
- Battery pack with speaker stores in hidden pocket near hem of shirt
- Adjustable volume… the top volume level is really loud
- Black 100% cotton shirt
- Requires 4 AAA batteries (not included)
- Exclusive product designed and manufactured by ThinkGeek

- Flashback to 1980’s style LED watches, then crank up the geek factor - the £119.99 FAZE watch with around 200 red LEDs packed in a circle - just go look, because I can’t explain this great geek gadget in 3 lines (via techfresh)
