• My rating: Easy
• My score: 1 hint

Is this really easy? I made one mistake, but with hindsight I feel like I shouldn’t have done, and that I was merely too impatient. Here’s what happened: I looked at the theme clue and immediately thought ‘Oh, it’ll be something to do with drumming’. So I looked for a few – SNARE? No. TOMTOM? No. BASS? No. KICK? No. The problem was, I thinking drums, not percussion. So I used my hint, got GONG, realized my mistake then knocked the others off one by one without any major issues.
