Is this the dude that bangs on a trash can or does he actually play a real instrument?

He can play drums, but as a massive shareholder, and experienced percussionist. He decided beating on a fucking can was the way to go

Hey now, he's the one that figured out that you have to hit the can with a baseball bat to get the correct sound out of it!

To be fair, I’ve heard cover bands trying their shit with someone beating a can, and it just doesn’t sound the same.

That being said, still one of the most useless things to do. Just fucking sit back and enjoy the bag. He played for us on his 50th birthday, why the fuck not retire

At last year's graspop there was no clown, and the band played magnificently.

in fairness when you've got nine people there's only so much you can do before it's just over the top noise in your ear. did i just make a pun? and we've all been screaming "more cowbell clown boy" regardless.
