So, first of all, you wouldn't believe how much time was spent researching how rainsticks actually work. There is actually very little information on HOW they work, altough there is plenty on how to make your own. Ultimately, good ol' Wikipedia was there for me and here is their explanation on the matter: " A rainstickis a long, hollow tube which is filled with small baubles such as beads or beans and has small pins arranged helically on its inside surface. When the stick is upended, the beads fall to the other end of the tube, making a sound reminiscent of a rainstorm as they bounce off the pins. The rainstick is generally used to create atmospheric sound effects or as a percussion instrument. They have become very popular in the last 30 years. The rainstick is generally considered to have been invented in South America's Chile, and was played in the belief that it could bring about rainstorms. " For details, visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainstick p.s. The main reason I posted this was because some IDIOT on the internet took it upon himself/herself to post an answer of "poop" originally under this question of "how do rainsticks work?" This is absolutely adolescent and absurd to me. For an inquiries, send to Stephaniefcrosby@gmail.com
