Dave the Drum

Welcome to my Blog! A collection of memories and experiences while undertaking my favourite past-time playing music including my own gig reviews playing with Splinter since joining in January 2006. I hope these give an insight into the sometimes bizzare working of a drummer's mind and some of the things we deal with along the way. I've started with the gigs that have taken place since I set up the Blog so some earlier dates will be missing - I may add them in due course.
