Robin Guy (Sham 69, Rachel Stamp, Bruce Dickinson, Tigertailz)

Percussion Discussion - Episode 112 - Robin Guy. Joining me today is the wonderful Robin Guy. Robin is the powerhouse drummer best known for playing for Glam Rockers Rachel Stamp and legendary punk band Sham 69. Robin has also played for Tigertailz, Bruce Dickinson and many more..... Join Robin and myself as we talk about some of the aspects of his wonderful career so far, he starts by giving us the tour of his incredible rehearsal/recording space in his back garden, Robin tells us how he is about to dip his toe into remote recording and the pros and cons involved in this. We talk about the time Robin had to fill in for the mighty Jason Bonhham at a drum festival in Birmingham and how he was heavily involved in the 2 world record breaking attempts with Stick it to MS. It is no secret that Robin is going through regular and intense Chemotherapy sessions, he talks very openly about these treatment sessions and how hard it is to bounce back, not only to gig but to perform day to day tasks. We of course had to talk about his legendary performance filling in for Mike Bordin drummer for Faith No More on Top of the Pops and how it didnt go quite to plan...... Robin is a real force of nature, a lovely guy, a hell of a drummer and an inspiration to us all! Mate, Thank you so much for giving up your time so generously.
