>What is the chopping noise Byrne makes during "once in a lifetime"?

From looking at the video, i'd guess he's doing one of three things:
	pounding a rhythm on a log
	pounding clothes clean on the shore
	pounding tortillas on a rock
the video shows african women in huts doing domestic things.

then again, from looking at the stuff he does in "stop making sense"
it could just be a striking (sic) gesture that looked good.

anyone heard their new album yet?  it's supposed to have a lot of
four-part harmonies...
