Drummers Wanted

AP -- MILWAUKEE, Wis.

Let there be drums.

Bill Sargent of Drummers for Jesus is inviting drummers everywhere to help him set a new Guinness Book world record for the most drummers playing at once.

The current record is 502. Sargent hopes to gather up to one-thousand drummers.

The record-breaking attempt on August 13th will be part of Powerfest -- a Christian music festival near Green Bay, Wisconsin. Sargent says participating drummers who show up with a drum set will get in free, and they don't have to be Christians.

He says they'll make a joyful noise, and just might register on the Richter scale.

What a cool idea! And I think Milwaukee is probably far enough away from my Dad that it won't interfere with the Fishing Channel or cause his hunting dog to bark.
