According to a report on Patchfurk, Japanese noisesmiths Boredoms will once again be celebrating the numerical happenstance and coincidence of calendars and dates by putting together another massive drum circle. This year, because it’s 2011, there will be 111 drummers (including Hella’s Zach Hill, Hisham Bharoocha of Soft Circle, Jeremy Hyman formerly of Ponytail, Butchy Fuego of Pit Er Pat, and Mat Watson) arranged in a boa-shaped circle constricting around the majesty and power of Boredoms and Yamantaka Eye.
As all faithful readers of TMT know, this will be the fifth time that Boredoms have celebrated numerical destiny with a Boadrum: 77 Boadrum on 07.07.07, 88 Boadrum on 08.08.08, Boadrum 9 on 09.09.09, and last, but certainly not least, Boadrum 10 on 10.10.10.
So, if want to see Boredoms play with over a hundred other drummers, just head to Island Quarry in Byron Bay, Australia and you’ll get to see all the boa-shaped drumming that your brain can take. Or, if you’re more of the adventurous type, fill out the application and you too can be one of the many links that make up the majestic snake of 111 Boadrum.
