Stick It To MS
Two years ago we took part in the World Record attempt for the most number of drummers drumming. The event raised over £65,000 for the Multiple Sclerosis society in the UK and hit the headlines worldwide. 600 drummers all playing the same beat at the same time in the same place was an astonishing feat.
More astonishingly it was the idea of one person, Rick Prince. Ably assisted by just his wife Karen and friend Craig Glover between them they organised the registration, venue, well-known celebrities, PR, the lot. When we learned how much time they'd put in for such a good cause we offered Wilson Digital's service for free if they ever decided to do it again.
Well here we are in 2011 and with a date and venue to be annouced they're looking for 600+ drummers again. This time though you can register directly on the new site at www.stickittoms.com. You can just be a part of the community or you can sign up to play, all in the same place. There's even a merchandise section.
Here's to raising the roof and even more money than last time.
What the client said...
It was such a huge effort ro register everyone manually last time I don't know how me and Karen coped. This time people can register and pay their registration automatically and we just get the list through.
It'll save us hours and hours of administration and that's time we can spend making the event even bigger and better than last time. Thanks to Oliver and Rob at Wilson Digital for stepping up to the plate.

Classic Rock and Metal Podcast
This site was required to house the new Classic Rock and Metal Podcast project by Wilson Media. It needed to carry the latest episode of the show on the home page with the ability to either stream it directly from the page or download for later use. It also needed to clearly show the subscription feeds for standard RSS and the all-important iTunes feed.
We also added an archive for old shows, a search facility for the whole site plus two contact forms, one for general and the other for bands wishing to be considered for slots on the show. Finally there’s a page to allow people to enter the monthly competition.
The Concorde Club
The Concorde Club is a private members club in Eastleigh, near Southampton, Hampshire. Established in 1957 and set in a beautiful old school house the club boasts an excellent restaurant, wine bar and hotel. It is now a world-famous jazz venue offering a diverse entertainment programme including live music 5 nights a week.
The owners wanted a system that would allow booking for members and non-members where pricing is different and a method for members to enter their membership number so that their preferential ticket prices could be validated. They also needed the ability for people to be able to book a variety of restaurant ticket options, again both for members and non-members.
As they already had a website with a certain design and style guide, we were required to follow this when applying all the necessary pages for booking tickets.
