The Story Behind The Badge with BDC
British Drum Co. Managing Director Al Murray, in his own inimitable style, will take you on a journey through the fascinating story of the British Drum Company. From the earliest days as a fledgling start-up, he will look closely at the significant developments they encountered on their way to becoming the world-renowned brand you see today. Kasabian drummer and BDC partner Ian Matthews will also be in attendance to answer questions and demonstrate their drums. It’s going to be informal, informative and a lot of fun!
Free Drum Lessons with ACM & Roland
The LDS free drum lessons are back! Expect fun, relaxed lessons aimed at beginners who are just starting out, right up to fully-fledged drum gods. You will get the chance to play on Roland e-kits, and be taught by some of the UK's top tutors from ACM. Whether you want to thrill with your fills or improve your groove, take advantage of these completely free lessons at the London Drum Show. There's even a dedicated Kids lesson this year just for the little ones. Sign up at the ACM stand on Level 3 - but hurry, the lessons fill up fast.
Learn How To Mic Up Your Kit Professionally
Come to one of three sessions each day at the show, and learn how to mic up your kit correctly for a range of situations, from recording to performing on stage. These sessions will be lead by Ben Scott in association with ACM. He will demonstrate on a Yamaha kit with Audix mics, and will hold a Q&A during each session.
