Does anyone know where I can score these types of brushes?

When you play them really hard they shred and fly all over the place looking very cool.  I don't know if they are some kind of hair, grass or twigs.

Will Calhoun uses them and probably a few others.

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Thx!

I like that image of stuff flying all over the place.  But don't poke an eye out! Wonder if you could make a stick with a hollow part with small holes, fill it with flour so it would puff 'smoke'. You'd be smok'in when you played that solo.

I once used a pair of small fire place brooms on a stone floor to accompany an accoustic guitar. They made nice sweeping sounds when played like brushes. I remembered that moment when I first saw these new broom sticks.

Well, the things Calhoun were playing were red and kinda bushy looking- almost like an african fly swatter made from the end of a giraffe's or some other beasts tail.  I ain't never been to africa, but I've seem movies where certain tribesmen had these things, usually part of a ceremonial dress, not as a fly swatter persay. 

When he played them (Will Calhoun) the stuff went everywhere and sort floated down creating a very cool effect.

I got an idea how to make a cheapo one using regular stix, xmas tree icicles and rubber bands.  It might be kinda tacky looking- I don't know, but might do the trick.
