WHERE IS ADVENTURE DRUMS?
Rhythm favourite Brad Davies, he of Adventure Drums, seems to have gone missing, judging by these videos…

GIVEN THE HARD SHOULDER
So, your car's broken down on the way to band practice, you might have to wait for ages for breakdown assistance and you've got your kit in the back. What do you do? Obviously, what this guy did - set-up on the hard shoulder

WHERE THERE'S A WILL
We stumbled across this awesome drum solo from Spycatcher's Will Taylor. Nice work, Will!
JOSH HAS GOT TALENT
Impressive performance from Josh McKenzie, aka McK Nasty, on Britain's Got Talent. Sadly, the judges just didn't know enough about anything and, well, he didn't win.
