Sometimes the beats and acts get rather repetitive; there are only so many ways you can slap your knees and chest before it gets kind of old. It’s not that it’s not impressive; the talent is apparent. However, a tribal drum circle of matchboxes is not as exciting as the bang-bang of garbage cans and fire extinguishers.

...death of a U.S. Census Bureau worker in Clay County, Ky., who was found hanging from a tree, reportedly with the word Fed scrawled on his chest, rippled through the national consciousness more than other crimes from rural, tucked-away corners might have. The discovery of the body of Bill Sparkman, 51, a substitute teacher and a field worker for the bureau, comes at a time when talk media, tea parties and white-hot town-hall meetings have fanned antigovernment sentiment.
