WoW! Can somebody tell me why the taiko has decorations on it, and all different drummers play and hit the side first? Is it a kind of ceremony..?

I think the decorations on the drum an shimenawa, which are ropes to mark off a Shinto sacred space. As for what's happening, this appears to be a ceremony that takes place on Jan 2nd of every year called a "start hitting" ceremony. I guess it's to start off the new year of drumming. The description also says that usually they wear masks, but this year they are showing their faces.
