John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

China Drum

China Drum are an English punk rock band from Ovingham in Northumberland, England, active initially from 1989 to 2000, playing under the name The Drum beginning in 1999. The group originally consisted of brothers Bill and Dave McQueen, a guitarist and bassist respectively, and singing drummer Adam Lee. They released three moderately successful full-length albums and toured in support of noted punk and alternative rock groups, including Green Day, Ash, and Supergrass. They reformed in 2013 under the China Drum moniker.

Links to Peel[]

Peel played in 1993 the group's debut single, 'Simple', which was self released by the band. He would then play further material from the group including choosing their video, 'Barrier', as one of the songs on 120 Minutes which he presented an episode in 1995. However, after the 90's, Peel seemed to have lost interest in the group and never played any songs from their 2000 album, 'Diskin'.
