Drum and Drummer

While Ben’s been pushing back on rumours about his mum’s demise, George has been back on the road up to Scotland via Birmingham and Newcastle and invested in some drum mics. Ben has finally completed his Yamaha Stage Custom mega kit thanks to the guys at Rubix Drums in London (and no thanks to James Gillingham).

After a little dig at the nerds from Q.I. George tells us about his best gig ever including setting up his kit on a wheeled drum riser.
