DRUM EVENT

The answer to the many questions we receive as to when we are going to have our next drum event is - right now! On Saturday August 19th Island Drum is hosting a Summer Drum Day at the Bard to Broadway Theatre Tent in Fern Road Qualicum Beach, staring at 2.30pm.

We are pleased to feature two great players, in two different styles. On drum set, from Portland, Oregon, we have Alan Jones. Alan is in great demand. He works throughout the US and in Europe, and plays in a wide range of styles. Joining him will be Pamela Lynn. Pamela is a World Percussionist and teaches Freestyle Drumming lessons throughout Nanaimo and Central Island.

Alan and Pamela will each be playing and talking about different drumming styles, on drum set and hand drums, as well as performing together.

Bring your own hand drum, and join in the fun!

Tickets are available at the store, and at Bard to Broadway box office, next to The Old School House in Qualicum Beach, priced at $10 ($5 for students)

MAPEX MAKES WAVES

The Mapex drum line is really huge for us now, and this is reflected in increasing sales throughout the world. And no wonder; with a lineup that has everything from entry level sets to the amazing Orion series with Burlwood Maple shells. We try to keep examples of every part of the range in stock, but they move out so fast that this isn't always easy! However, come by the store soon and see the great drums and amazing value for money that Mapex have to offer. See the ProM maple and the MBirch (with a FREE extra tom), as well as the maple and walnut shell Saturn sets.
