Those "Great Unknowns"

[penski]

Just got off the phone with a friend - we were talking about those individuals who posess a phenomenal amount of talent but who never really got noticed.

So show us what you've got.

Jason Bowld
Drummer
Played with Pitchshifter for yeeeaaars and currently with This Is Menace (East Midlands rock supergroup, yo! )
Launched DrumROM back in the day and has always worked with younger drummers, teaching and guiding them.
Has the best "Drummers' grin/gurn" ever.
All-round general nice bloke.

Live with This Is Menace - metooooorrrrl.

Roland UK V-drum demo:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3

Little bit of teachy-teach.

"What's In It For Me?" live with Pitchshifter this year. Ignore the rest of the band; they're a shadow of their former selves.

"Genius" live with Pitchshifter in 2001. They jumped the shark shortly after this.

James Dean Bradfield. Voice n guitar in one perfect combo.

And nobody's heard of the Manics...? :/

They've only sold 10,000 records?

I still refuse to accept that James Dean Bradfield is 'unknown'.

...Or that he has any more talent than say...James Blunt...(but that's beside the point).

Go up to anyone aged between 20 and 40 and ask them "Have you heard of a band called 'Manic Street Preachers'?" and almost all of them will say "Yes!"

Anyone got someone who isn't a drummer...?
