Friday 15/01/2010 Birmingham Metropole

Thankfully the snow has disappeared! We made our way up to Birmingham Metropole straight from the Reading Town Hall event. Thankfully we were working for another event and production company so all of the sound /lighting and AV was installed. We used all of our own control gear and provided the mad and fab Fergus on Percussion.

He really has the biggest percussion rig!
2 x congas,
1 x pair of bongos,
1 x chime tree,
1 x pair of Timbales,
2 x cymbals,
1 x doumbek,
A lot of toys; shekere, tambourines etc etc.

It's great working with a percussionist as it looks and sounds great. He played pretty much all of our set from 10.30pm - 01.30am. I think that his hands were red raw by the end of the set!

Check out the link to see Fergus in action from previous events.
