Carl Williams
Posted by Sharon on February 23rd, 2008
I met with the new drumming tutor working with the East Lothian Pipes and Drums Trust last week. I must admit to being almost converted to drumming after chatting with Carl. He is incredibly enthusiastic and inspiring and has been in the Guiness Book of Records as the world’s fastest drummer and has played with World Championship pipe band Shotts and Dykehead. It is truly an honour to welcome him to Knox Academy.
It was great to hear that he had already heard about the Knox Pipe Band and is looking forward to working with the pupils. He is going to hold a drumming demonstation this week for all interested pupils and will commence drumming tuition from next week.

Interesting.
I know of Carl, he attended a lot of the Shotts practises, but never competed with the band. That was in the winter of 2002/03. Jim told him he was surplus to requirements in about April 2003, so it is indeed interesting that he claims to have played with SDCPB.
