Protection Racket Launches New YouTube Channel

Ronnie Dungan • MMR Global • March 29, 2018

Carrying case specialist, Protection Racket’s new YouTube video channel features a host of famous drummers, funny clips and testimonials from life on the road using their cases.

Already featuring almost seventy videos, it includes clips from studios to stages, a Lamborghini to a dressing room, 10 Downing Street to the beach, all with a wide variety of vital information and secret tips from the Protection Racket team, their endorsees and distributors.

 Ian Paice (Deep Purple), videoed in his drum room at home, talks about how he uses his Protection Racket cases to ensure his special kits are well taken care. While making his short film, drum legend Peter Erskine wonders, is he the original model for the Protection Racket guy? Drumming stalwart, Steve White, reminisces about being one of the first to endorse the tough cases. Ian Matthews (Kasabian) gives a polished performance before popping in to see a special friend and John Tempesta (The Cult) is seen in the dressing room before a gig. Brookes Wackerman (Avenged Sevenfold) takes great comfort from his Protection Racket cases!

Audacious drummers, who love their gear, can uncover more about the infamous Nutcases, wicked Prolinecases and the companies many notorious accessories. Serious investigation of the new YouTube videos exposes exactly what Robin Guy keeps in his cases, how many people can fit in a drum case, how much hardware can be squeezed in a case and who stole one of the pet beds! New and archive footage is added daily by the Protection Racket mob.

 “At Protection Racket we have always been known for our passion, innovation and exhorting drummers to protect their precious kits,” said founder and CEO Dean Bowdery. “The new YouTube channel is a great and fun way to show exactly what Protection Racket cases are all about, safeguarding instruments whilst being practical and useful.”
