5 Years of Pandemonium Drummers!
It is of course the anniversary of the London 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony, for which we were formed.
London 2012 was the incredible starting point that did not just forge the Olympic rings magnificently, but also us as an amateur voluntary drumming group, with professional aspirations.
We would never have imagined, however, that five years on we would still be drumming in Opening Ceremonies, at festivals, in parades, at community events, on TV, in video shoots, for sports events, for cultural events, at weddings, at funerals, at corporate events, for volunteers, and at a variety of other events.
But here we are in 2017, the year we returned to London's iconic Olympic Stadium (for the World Para Athletics Championships), and we are going strong - we even made our own song and music video last year: Champion!
Introducing: The PD Timeline
This is an excellent time to take stock, so we started a multimedia timeline.See below or click on the link for a full screen view.
It is still needs to be populated with all details, but you can already browse the first year of our existence in all its glory.
Here's to the next 5 years - best wishes to all fellow London 2012 Ceremonies Volunteer Performers, to the London 2012 Ceremonies creatives and operatives, to the London 2012 Games Makers & London Ambassadors, to all organisations and individuals who supported us, and to all who enjoyed the ceremonies, particularly the London 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony - watch it again here!
