Hi I’m Paul Clark Jnr (PaulCgd)

I thought that I would make a profile so that you, my viewers could be able to have proper contact with me so feel free to comment me, message me and check my pictures out, i have also written a small bio so you can all understand more about me. I won't always be able to reply instantly as i have college work to do and other things, but i will eventually reply!

I started drumming at the age of 3, My dad Paul Clark Snr took me to a Manowar show as dad bought manowar to England and Europe in the beginning of their carear, you can see his name on some of the first albums especially Hail to england, their drummer of the time Rhino sat me behind his drum set with a pair of drumsticks and let me hit the drums and cymbals, I couldn't reach the bass drum pedals at the time though.

From that day I started banging a Tetley tea tin with my drumsticks, I did this for a while until my dad bought me a plastic drum set, I carried on playing that until my dad bought me a proper mini drum set along with lessons, I had drum lessons for a few years but was not being properly taught but I was too young and naive to realise this at the time, also in the mean time my dad bought a session pro drum set because I had grown out of the mini drum set.. I then gave up lessons and for a few years didn't really try practicing. Until I was about 12 and I started practicing again, I started playing along to songs on my cd player; I would play along to just basic songs with basic grooves, but kept slowly improving. I had been saving money up from selling drinks and crisps while I was at school; I would make about £10 a day which I thought was great :) I saved all this money up along with some birthday and Christmas money that I had. I eventually had about £500 so I decided I wanted buy myself a new drum kit, So I went to my local drum store and bought myself a standard midnight blue tama rock star, I chose that because It was what Bill Ward played (Tama) and as my dad had been the tour manager for Black Sabbath, Bill Ward was one of my heroes!

So I went home with this drum set and from that day I was dedicated to my drums nothing got in the way ever! I still carried on selling things at school and I had also started selling stuff on eBay just to make more money so that I could buy more stuff for my drums, some things I had for birthdays and Christmas but most of my kit I bought myself with every little penny that I could get my hands on. Drums and music has taken over my life, I love it!!!

I am currently studying a Music Btech at college to expand my knowledge on music. I have been lucky in life having my dad support me along the way, because of him I have had the opportunity to help the drum tech for Dio (old Black Sabbath singer, currently Heaven and Hell), help out Manowar when I have gone to their shows and because of this have learnt many new things! I am also lucky enough to have been given the chance to play the Magic Circle Festival ( click the name for a link) this year doing a solo performance, which I hope to see some of you guys who have been supporting me on YouTube there! I was also quite recently in the news paper so if anyone would like to check that out Click Here

Thank you all for your support and your encouragement, I couldn't have done this without you!
