  • On 25/6/11 Roger Taylor visited his boyhood home of Truro and unveiled a sculpture by artist Tim Shaw called 'The Drummer'. In the video we also see Roger Brokenshire who was the singer in The Reaction (Roger Taylor's band at Truro School) and two little girls who live in the house Roger lived in as a boy. (Roger can be heard to say 'which of you lives in my old bedroom?'.)
    Sorry for the amateur camerawork: as you can see it was very crowded!!!! :) For more info on Roger Taylor early career visit www.queenincornwall.blogspot.com

    I was so excited thinking this was for Roger. I think Roger, Brian, John and Freddie should have statues in England.

    Have only just come across this piece, even though it happened a few years ago. My friend in Newquay always kept me infomed but I never saw any of this wonderful footage before. Thank you for uploading it. Huge fan

    Christ what a monstrosity! I was a jazz drummer and pipe band drummer in my younger days, from ‘oop north’! In fact diametrically opposite Truro up here in the north east so I don’t know what it is meant to signify! Queen are my favourite group from the very beginning which is what brought me here.

      I thought it was a Roger sculpture too, but then they don't do things like that until the person has fuckin died, why do they celebrate someone when they're dead?

      He was just being respectful and trying not to steal the artists moment. Roger always smiles if you meet him. He's one of the good ones, a class act :)

    Disappointed that the statue is not more of a tribute to Roger specifically. Of course, he may have nixed that idea or there might have been fears of vandalism. But it would have been great for tourism and IMO he deserves it. Guess this will have to do. (Can't we at least paint Roger's face on the drum? ;)
