When Snow Patrol were first called Shrug (at Dundee University) they had a drummer who seemed to drop out of the band without trace or mention. Does anyone know who he was or where he is now?

I believe it was Jonny Quinn

I'm not 100% sure though.

Thanks - I'm pretty sure there was someone before Johnny Quinn. When they formed in Dundee there was Gary Lightbody, Mark McClelland and a drummer who also sang backing vocals. I've heard the Shrug demo (and very good it is if a little raw) and they used to play around the place when they were at Dundee, but I've no idea what happened to the drummer.

I remember reading something about a broken arm or a disorder of some sort. That might not have been then orignal drummer though.

And you're welcome. :)
