BEAT YOUR OWN PERCUSSION

Jamin Orral, drummer with Be Your Own Pet, has announced he no longer wishes to be known as the drummer with Be Your Own Pet. He's walked just a couple of weeks ahead of a BYOP US tour; apparently he intends to head off back to college and, such music as he will do, will be through his other band, JEFF.

It's not yet known who'll be drumming for BYOP this autumn, although Ian McCulloch's offered to look under his bed to see if he's still got Echo.
