Any extra percussion in your band?

If you mistakenly picked up some extra percussion equipment at Butlins then can you contact Ray Paine to give it back please.

Percussion
  Ray Paine is hoping to be re-united with some missing percussion of his from Butlins

The popular percussion specialist and contest provider Ray Paine is missing a couple of items that may have been picked up accidently after the Black Dyke Re-union Concert at the recent Butlins Mineworkers Championship in Skegness.

Percussion equipment

As there was an amount of percussion equipment at the venue the items may well have been mistakenly taken away by a competing band with their own equipment after the Sunday Entertainment contest.

Please check

Could Championship Section bands competing at the event please check their percussion equipment and contact Ray if they have found any of the items.

18"Zildjian K Constantinople Crash Cymbal with Ray Payne's signature on the cymbal.
6" Grover Super Overtone Triangle
2 x Yamaha Boom arm cymbal stands
