After a bit of money chat and Ben doing ‘the sensible thing’ by NOT buying a cymbal (sad face) we have a big discussion about drum charts and why we use them for functions and why we don’t for originals as George is looking to take his Lainey Wilson gig ‘offline’. We also discuss the new Evans Pull Cord Drum Key and TAMA are entering the lightweight hardware game. Enjoy!

After a big gulp of Lemsip George quizzes Ben on his apathy towards drumming and gigs; is he joking or is there an exit strategy in mind? We also chat about George’s expensive trip to Graham Russell Drums including new skins for both kits and some sexy new hi hats. He’s also been playing around with his new Drum Dial but the ultimate question remains… 75 WHAT? Enjoy!

On this week’s show we chat about mince pie induced wheezing, comparing yourself to sportsmen of a similar age and setting up racing events at the old peoples home to give them one last sprint. George runs us through his NYE gig and has bought himself a Drum Dial and Ben is getting ready for surgery. Enjoy!

Happy New Year! We’re kicking things off with what gear we’d like to buy this year as George is looking at getting a Porter and Davies drum stool and new skins for his kits. Ben has grabbed himself an Xmas bargain getting the worlds heaviest cymbal for £95 and tuned up all his snares. We also chat about DIY, fixing locks with graphite powder and George’s stinky pipes. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas! It’s time for another Christmas Special and we’ve roped in old friends and returning guests Josh Rowe and Elliott Joseph for some festive fun. Whilst we look back at 2025 and ahead to 2026 we discuss what we think are the ‘coolest’ instruments, which tribute act we’d hate to play in, envy when watching gigs, learning piano and Josh’s book of band names. Hope you all have a great Christmas! Enjoy!

On this week’s episode we hear all about George’s birthday gig in Glasgow and we discuss what to do when you’re asked to give a dep gig back to the original drummer. We also chat about the Graham Russell Drums advent calendar sales, funeral eulogies and why 24 Hours In Police Custody is more exciting when you know the area. Enjoy!

Your birthday, a gig and a trip to Scotland… which two would you choose? Well George has all three coming up this weekend. But before that we chat about the winter gig blues; leaving the house when it’s dark, complacency, set list order and the worst version on Numb by Linkin Park ever played. Ben’s also been back to hospital to have a discogram performed on his spine and launched his new website drumcharts.co.uk where you can purchase digital versions of his one-page PDF drum charts. Enjoy!

George has been living it up this last week going to see previous guests doing their thing and indulging in the delights of the backstage afterparty. First up was seeing Woody, Gabbi and Oli at Bastille’s show in Brighton, then Josh playing with James Marriott and finally Camille playing with The Subways in Portsmouth. We find out what drinks are on offer and how tall Dan from Bastille is. Enjoy!
