So if you don't know what rag week is, it's basically where as a college Nexus does something to help raise funds for the college. Last year they all cycled from Coventry to Amsterdam! This year is going to be even tougher! We're going to attempt to break 6 world records in 6 days, the one that I will be involved in is a..............brace yourself.......... a 72 HOUR DRUMATHON!!!! That's right all the drummers will be doing 72 hours of drumming all together in one go! Here are the rules, there will be a huge playlist of songs that we will drum to for the whole time, we have to have a leg and an arm going at all times and have to play in the style of the song currently playing. We can do as basic a groove as we want as long as the two limbs keep in time and are actually playing a groove not just randomly hitting the drums. We get a 5 minute break every 2 hours but we can accumulate breaks into a longer one, for example go 8 hours then have a 15 minute break. We have a hospitality team who will be feeding us and making sure we're still sane!
Nexus is an awesome place to be studying and a great community to be a part of and I hope your donations help it thrive in the coming years :).
Thank you
