Yesterday in Brighton I had the good fortune to stumble upon a street performance by two young drummers performing under the banner of iDrum. These guys prove that you don't need top-quality gear to produce a great sound.
One played a pretty basic drum kit (plus assorted street furniture) while the other played plastic buckets and bowls. But what a groove!
From what I can gather, iDrum are popping up all over the place (on the street, in clubs), so if you get the chance to see these percussive guerrillas, take it. Anyone who says drum solos (or duets) are boring should have been there yesterday, along with the huge crowd of appreciative passers-by, who couldn't pass by.
