Allister Brown is attempting to smash a Guinness World Record for drumming and raise vital funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust. Please call into Music Matters Lisburn or watch online anytime to cheer him on and give generously to Cystic Fibrosis Trust.

30 year old Allister is aiming to drum for 100 hours non-stop between the 22 and 26 July. Allister previously held the record in 2003 when he drummed for 58 hours and 17 minutes, and in 2004 when he drummed for 78 hours. The current world record is 85 hours and 30 minutes and was achieved by Belgian Gery Jallo in 2007. To break the record Allister must play recognisable tunes and not repeat any song within 4 hours. For each hour he plays he is allowed a 5 minute break.
