József Tibor Fejes, a young Hungarian identified by C. J. Chivers in The Gun as ‘the first known insurgent to carry an AK-47.’, ‘Fejes obtained his prize after Soviet soldiers dropped their rifles during their attack on revolutionaries in Budapest in 1956…. The Hungarian Revolution marked the AK-47’s true battlefield debut.’

So popular is the Beckoning Cat in Asia, that in Thailand, the local prosperity goddess Nang Kwak, originally depicted as a young woman kneeling with a money-bag on her lap, is now generally shown making the Beckoning Cat’s raised-hand gesture, and sometimes is even given a cat’s tail. Add to this the fact that Nang Kwak is often represented in the form of a Thai penis amulet or palad khik (that is, her body conforms to the shaft of the penis and she wears a hat in the shape of the glans of the penis), and this goddess must win some sort of award for Most Intriguing Cross-Cultural and Cross-Species Religious-Luck Imagery.

I use whatever drum kit the drummer brings, but I prefer older, thinner-shelled drums for rock music. I prefer single-ply heads for most uses. If the drummer needs help tuning his drums I can help, but usually I stay out of it, though there are some methods to get specific sounds. It’s a little more involved than I can explain quickly, but generally tighter heads have less sustain, except for really loose heads, which have even less. Generally I tune toms in relation to the resonant frequency of the shell, the top head tuned to that note, the bottom head higher or lower depending on how much sustain and resonance is required.
A lot of the time I find myself using the room sound around the drums quite a bit, and there are some tricks to doing that convincingly that I’ve posted about on Prosoundweb and the Electrical forums if you have time to search there. Also there’s a video of a thing from a TapeOp conference somewhere on youtube where I blab on and on forever about how I approach drums. hth
