    You may know that one of the bands I am in is @theriverkicks who play a mix of traditional folk tunes and more modern music. This is where I get to play the drums and I am really enjoying it. We have a gig coming up in August, so we need some rehearsals to get us all together. The latest was at London Road Studios in Baldock. They have a series of sound-proof rooms where bands can play. One advantage over our previous venue is that a drum kit is already there. I just needed to bring cymbals, sticks and my snare drum. The room also has a PA system, but then we needed more channels than the mixing desk provides as we have a lot of singers. We just had to swap some cables around.

    Goatfest

    The gig is at Goatfest, which is not too far from us. You will find us listed on the Sunday. We will be playing on their smaller stage in a tent and we need to sort out what we need to take as we will not have much time to get set up. They may also supply the drums, so I could have it easy.

    The video is of a song that I hope we will be playing. Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys is a fun one for me as I can do lots of drum fills. I got some good feedback from the band on my playing and I think I have really improved through working with the band. It is quite different to playing along to videos at home.

    Burnt out

    The studios are on an industrial estate that had a big fire a while back. The wrecked buildings have yet to be cleared. I was not going to imitate @slobberchops and try to get in there. It is likely to be dirty and dangerous.

    Rock on!
