Brushes..? Nah. Hit 'em As Hard As

I've Wanted To Be A Drummer Since I Was About Five Years Old. I Used To Play On A Bath Salt Container With Wires On The Bottom, And On A Round Coffee Tin With A Loose Wire Fixed To It To Give A Snare Drum Effect. Plus There Were Always My Mum's Pots And Pans. When I Was Ten, My Mum Bought Me A Snare Drum. My Dad Bought Me My First Full Drum Kit When I Was 15. It Was Almost Prehistoric. Most Of It Was Rust.

I Never Had Any Lessons. When I First Started Playing I Used To Read Music. I Was Very Interested In Music. But When I Started Playing In Groups I Did A Silly Thing And Dropped It. It's Great If You Can Write Things Down.

Nowadays You Can't Be Loud Enough!

I'm The Best Keith Moon-type Drummer In The World.

I Dare Not Drink Before A Gig Because I'll Get Tired And Blow It. So I Have To Sit Drinking Tea In A Caravan.
