This Sunday, November 2, over 500 drummers will attempt to break no less than two Guinness World Records during the sixth annual Woodstick Big Beat Drum Event. Woodstick features 534 drummers in nine different cities simultaneously playing together to break the existing simultaneous drumming record of 533, free drum clinics and contests. All nine cities will be hooked up via the Internet but you can check it out in person by heading out to Juanita High School at 10601 NE 132nd St in Kirkland.

The event raises money for the Hearing Regeneration group and locally features appearances from noted drummers like Pearl Jam’s Matt Cameron, Heart’s Michael Derosier, and Modest Mouse’s Joe Plummer.
