Terminology: US vs. UK - 1942
Absolutely! When I began playing drums in the 60's I played on a "drum set". Over the decades the British term of "drum KIT" has come into common useage. You can tell the old-school musicians by which term they use. -dixon cannon- Dixon Cannon

In what era were vest popular for men?
A VEST is generally something that a fisherman or hunter wears - or perhaps a repairman on the highway. A gentleman wore a WAISTCOAT that generally came as part of a three-piece suit or one that complimented a suit. I'll do a search for some photos. Oddly enough, during my free-wheeling...- Dixon Cannon

Drinking my coffee each morning from my vintage (thick porcelain) diner mug. I love the feel of it and the look of it. It's just plain old fashioned! -dixon cannon- Dixon Cannon

Chuck Taylor color question.
Boyo-boy are you right! I LOVE those 'Jack Purcell's' - I bought a bunch at a discounted price and still have two pair in the closet unworn! I've loved them for decades having once seen George Harrison wearing a pair in a photograph. Heck, even James Dean was a 'Jack Purcell' man! -dixon cannon- Dixon Cannon
