Drum Channel’s Air Drumming Competition

Drum Channel has teamed up with Ari Gold, director and star of the premier film about Air Drumming Adventures of Power, to bring you the most amazing Air Drumming Competition ever – Power’s Air Drum Battle, where your Air Drumming talents could win you incredible prizes.

Adventures of Power is the movie that brings you more than just a rock ‘n’ roll adventure, it is an epic story of Air Drumming and has been released on DVD for the first time. Together, Drum Channel and Ari Gold Films bring you the chance to win a world class PDP X7 drumset complete with Sabian Cymbals worth over $2700.00!

Neil Peart, who cameos in the film, Lars Ulrich, and Chad Smith, were all Air Drummers before they were drummers – are you?  Film yourself Air Drumming, upload your video to YouTube by following the instructions at www.drumchannel.com/Air_Drum_Contest, and like Neil Peart says, “March to the beat of your own drum – even if you don’t have one.”
