message: "The early years
Ian Paice got his first drum kit at 15. He began his professional career in the late 50s playing drums in his father's dance band."
Yes, it's undeniably correct that Ian was born (on this very day, hooray!) in 1948. But it is really true that he started professionally some five (or so) years before he turned 15 in 1963? Wasn't the man busy learning to read and write in the late 50s?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.227.58.49 (talk) 09:22, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: From my recollection, most people in the UK in that era learned to read and write by age 7 or earlier (assuming they didn't have learning difficulties), which for Ian Paice would have been in 1955 or earlier. If his father (or an associate) taught him as a child he may well have played in some gigs on the band's kit while a schoolboy, before being given his own personal one. However, it would seem worth looking into since it doesn't have a citation. I'll see if I can find something. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.202.160.23 (talk) 21:12, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  What's the story? 

message: I was just poking around on YouTube and Paice doing a drum solo with Odessa and the song "Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin, but there is no mention of it in this article.   Who is Odessa? (Even if the lead singer says "lotta" funny.) - 143.120.99.10 (talk) 22:55, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

message: Born in Nottingham (1948) but moving south in early childhood, Ian Paice got his first drum kit at 15. He began his professional career in the late 50s playing drums in his father's dance band. =- played drums before he had a drum kit then?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.171.8.4 (talk) 15:53, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: As mentioned above, he might have been taught, and have played gigs, on the band's kit before later being given his own personal one, but will attempt to corroborate. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.202.160.23 (talk) 21:15, 3 June 2018 (UTC)
