John Kerr was a LD of the Shotts & Dykehead before emigrating to Canada, where he would eventually head up the Canadian army drumming program, and lead several excellent drum corps, including the Clan McNis, Cdn Forces Composite and the Dunvegan Pipe Band.
John was a master musician with unusual and creative drumming ideas, and responsible for encouraging a wholesale change in drummers from just memorizing scores by ear, to writing and understanding music more broadly.
These signature sticks of his would make a great collector item for the drummer in the family.
