Very cool!! I had been wondering about that during the show in Washington, 
DC. Since I was standing right in front of Jim, I couldn't see behind the 
speakers that were behind Bones and next to Rob.

Question: Why does Rob have that tube thing that looks like plastic wrapped 
around a spring (that is, like a clothes dryer vent pipe) attached to his 
drum kit? Does he have a fan at the other end to blow cool air onto his 
sweaty face? Just curious here!

Thanks in advance,
