Children In Need ... the talk behind the
walk
| Phil Duke
- if you're going to do a 40-hour drum solo, you need plenty
of drums |
Successful attempt on world record in
Crewe
Some people like eternally long drum solos. Some don't.
The former however will congratulate a successful attempt by the
very-lengthily named Phil Hanuman Das Bhakta, a 30
year-old female drummer, to drum continuously for more than forty
hours.
By so doing, Phil beat the world record, and raised
thousands for Children In Need. Well done to her!
The whole thing
started at 6am (arrrrrgggghh!) on Thursday, November 15th and ended
the evening of Friday, November 16th at The Limelight Club in Crewe,
with a huge concert.
Phil plays for Invisible Touch, a Genesis
tribute band, and they joined her to finish the attempt
off.
Incidentally, she performed all the Genesis/Phil Collins
repertoire during her stint... twice!
