What Disability? We're just drummers from Down Under drum clinic presented by Dr Paradiddles Wonder Drumporium, Just Music Berlin and Can-Do Musos, featuring all Australian drummers on one night at the Sky Live Club on top of Just Music Berlin, Germany. Performers were Todd James, Buck-It, Josh Hogan from band Rudely Interrupted, and Andrew Hewitt.

The clinic was organised via months of facebook chats between Andrew Hewitt, Rich Millin, and Todd James with a vision in mind. Andrew Hewitt and Josh Hogan were in Berlin as part of the Berlin & Australia Exchange Project 2017 for Arts Access Australia.

If you do one thing for Andrew Hewitt on this International Day of People with Disability, it is this: park your sympathy at the door.

Australian Can-Do Musos founding member, Andrew Hewitt was honoured with a story about him, drumming,teaching and Can-Do Musos nationwide across Australia on ABC-TV News 24 and ABC-Radio.
