What is BTDT? : This is the time and place where we 'tunefully bash the living daylights' out of wheelie bins of different sizes. The band was formed in 2005 and just kept going!
Premier gigs include Stephen Naude taking a band to Glastonbury in 2009 and we did Latitude in 08 and 09 and we hold the record of being the first Wheelie Bin Band to drum on Southwold Pier. We have run workshops for up to 50 people in Farlingaye High School, St John's Church Woodbridge, SCC Community Resource Unit, Local Primary Schools, Forest Fest and Local youth clubs.

BTDT - Notices
We have decided to rest the band for the time being and we will consider restarting it in September 2010.
Sadly we have no bookings for the summer period and with less than 10 members now it is hard work to keep going.
The band NEEDS more adult help - especially an adult who is an experience drummer AND a lot more members.
We started the band 5 years ago as a short term fun project expecting it to last no more than a couple of school terms and burn out! A huge thank you to all who have made this such an amazing project so far and let us pray we can restart with a full band of at least 15 drummer and lots of adult help!
