Rattle and Hum …

The Japanese fondness for keeping crickets at home to enjoy the musical ambience of their sound actually belongs to a centuries–old Chinese tradition. Pet crickets were popularised in 17th century Kyoto where people would even carry little cricket cages about with them. Cricket cages, often of quite elaborate design, are still hung in Kyoto homes to this day.
