Designed and built in-house by our staff of engineers, this robotic “Drum Machine,” called the Gluing Gantry, ensures that every Evans head has a true collar. A series of vacuum fixtures holds the film in place for each head while the robotic gluing arm circles above the hoop and dispenses epoxy. The result is a drumhead that tunes both easily and consistently. At Evans, we do it right the first time. And every time. Check out what Peter Erskine has to say about Evans drumheads at www.evansdrumheads.com PO Box 290 • Farmingdale, NY 11735 We’ve been making the world’s finest sticks for years. And experience tells us that there are no shortcuts when it comes to making a stick. There is, however a very good short- cut when choosing one. The journey from wooden dowel to finished drumstick is a tough one. Each stick makes its way through the hands of several craftsmen before it leaves us. And at every test, there’s always the chance of getting turned into firewood. But it does get easier when our sticks reach the store. Because once you feel a pair in your hands, you’ll appreciate the time it spent in ours.

    “U2: There are fans and then there are superfans” by Bent Gringer https://pov.international/u2-superfans-hvad-sker-der 12.06.2019 [Please Note: The following text is a translation from the original Danish to English, supplied by Google translate. It has not been checked for accuracy and completeness. It’s provided here only as a convenience and it not intended to be an equivalent of the original. Please consult the original article at the link above for a complete and accurate text.] MUSIC // LONGREAD - There are maybe 300 international U2 superfans traveling around the band for more or even many of the concerts when U2 is touring. The ones who are at the top of the stage or fence every time, as close to the band as you can get. The so-called 'rail-junkies'. How can this be possible and what on earth are they doing? I first met North Bowman in the lounge café at the Michelberger Hotel in Berlin. It's July 2017, and it's the day after the U2 concert in town. He mocks the text on my T-shirt and recognizes a U2 fan: Unos // dos // tres // catorce // is the introduction to the number Vertigo. Directly translated it means some, two, three, fourteen, and it testifies to Bono's very lenient relationship with the Spanish language or the exact opposite. U2 fans from all over the world are searching for and discussing the deeper meaning with just that counting sequence. Is it a message to the soundman, is it a religious reference, is Bono a mathematical genius, or were the band members just drunk? The band did not run live photos and close-ups of the musicians during the concert on the big screen.
