Percussive Injuries
5 February 2007 15:13Right, does anyone know a good drummer who can learn songs and actually turn up to rehearsals from time to time, because we're getting very tired of ones that can't. Is it so hard to find anyone with as much commitment as the rest of the band does?
We've got four weeks until we're playing at this major Canadian industry show in Toronto and we really need someone who can do that. The guy we thought would be able to come in has proven himself unreliable- he didn't turn up to practice yesterday or get in touch at all and we simply can't be doing with that, he's straight out, but it presents a real problem.
While I'm whinging, one who can manage a simple shuffle would be nice as well. I don't see why it must be so amazingly hard to do.

He's a bit of a miserable git though and lives in kent - but he may be able to do some "session" stuff if nothing else
