Much as I admire the members of the (mighty?) Tub Thumpers for trying to start up a band, it's a pity more of them don't realise that just buying a drum and painting stuff on your face doesn't make you a drummer! Also, trying to play a melody rather than the rhythm is not the way to drum. I'm sure they could be infinitely better with a few proper drummers in their midst to do some 'twiddly bits' to augment the monotonous plodding that all sounds the same. One of the societies have had a samba and in the last few years who do just that, and their drumming is really quite infectious.

Nothing worse than those tub thumpers!
Should be renamed dull drummery.
A load of middle aged blokes with nothing else better than to make a rubbish noise.
As said previous, lets have a bit of a tune.
