I Want To Be In A Band

September 15, 2017August 2, 2023 ~ Mae Simkin ~ 3 Comments

I've wanted to be in a band for as long as I can remember. Even before I started to play drums. As a kid with quite a wide imagination I thought up scenarios of me being on big stages in front of thousands of people being any band member. What I mean by that, sometimes … Continue reading I Want To Be In A Band

Drums: It’s Good To Dream

September 1, 2017August 2, 2023 ~ Mae Simkin ~ Leave a comment

Well I'm back with another drum post. But this time it isn't one that is me moaning about my back and how I can't do it. It is a more positive outlook on it all. I'm not drumming.

LGBT+ Rights: Forwards or Backwards?

July 27, 2017August 2, 2023 ~ Mae Simkin ~ Leave a comment

Today marks fifty years since homosexuality was decriminalised in England and Wales and that is something worth celebrating. Since then, the rights of LGBT+ people has moved forward including the approval of gay marriage and allowing gay couples to adopt. That is brilliant. Shows that as a nation we don't discriminate when it comes to … Continue reading LGBT+ Rights: Forwards or Backwards?
