Trideset let bobnanja je na simboličen način praznoval Marko Soršak Soki, ob tem pa se mu je pridružilo 105 bobnarjev.
Na Glavnem trgu je v soboto, 11. septembra, točno ob poldnevu Marko Soršak Soki, bobnar skupine Elvis Jackson, praznoval trideset let bobnanja. Pri tem je razkril, kako je leta 1991 za njegovo glasbeno kariero bil usoden film: »Minilo je 30 let, odkar sem vstopil v svet glasbe in začel glasbeno kariero v našem prostoru. Leta 1991 sem s sošolci odšel v kino na ogled filma Terminator 2, v katerem je uvodna pesem You Could Be Mine skupine Guns n’ Roses. Petsekundni bobnarski uvod je bil zame usoden in prijel sem za bobnarske palice. Od takrat dalje me je posrkal svet glasbe in bobnam še danes.«
Glasbenik, ki je poznan tudi po dobrodelnem delovanju, namreč z dobrodelno akcijo 20za20 je do novih glasbil pomagal že 122 osnovnim šolam, v katerih nanje igra več kot petdeset tisoč otrok, je pod okriljem Narodnega doma Maribor in ekipe Festivala Lent organiziral dogodek, ki je privabil številne ljubitelje glasbe.
Pri tem je predstavil tudi svojo novo igralsko zasedbo, skupino The Rocktors, ob čigar spremljavi je bobnalo 105 bobnarjev. Queen, Joan Jett in Guns n’ roses, so odmevali po ulicah mesta, ki mu je bila posvečena pesem Paradise City.

Marko Soršak Soki symbolically celebrated thirty years of drumming, with 105 drummers joining him.
Marko Soršak Soki, drummer of the band Elvis Jackson, celebrated thirty years of drumming on the Main Square on Saturday, September 11, exactly at noon. In doing so, he revealed how fateful the film was in 1991 for his music career: »It’s been 30 years since I entered the world of music and started a music career. In 1991, I went to the movies with my classmates to watch the movie Terminator 2, which features the opening song You Could Be Mine by Guns n ‘Roses. The five-second drumming introduction was fatal for me and I grabbed the drumsticks. Since then, I have been sucked into the world of music and drums even today.«
The musician, who is also known for his charitable work, has helped 122 primary schools with more than 50,000 children to play new instruments with the 20za20 charity campaign. Under the auspices of Narodni dom Maribor and the Lent Festival team, he organized an event that attracted music lovers.
He also presented his new cast, The Rocktors, accompanied by 105 drummers. The Queen, Joan Jett, and Guns n ’roses echoed through the streets of the city Maribor to which the song Paradise City was dedicated.
