Drummer Martin Atkins is something of a force of nature. He began his professional career as a musician in John Lydon's post Sex Pistols punk band, Public Image Limited (PIL). He became a force on the industrial music scene, touring with Killing Joke and Ministry. But he's also an entrepreneur. He's had his own label--Invisible Records--for 20 years. He's spoken extensively and written about the business of touring.
