The Screaming Jets Drummer Convicted & Fined Over Drugs & Unlicensed Driving Charges

JULY 24, 2018

Mark McLeod, the current drummer of Aussie rockers The Screaming Jets, has been convicted and fined after handing himself into police on unlicensed driving and drugs charges.

9NEWS reports that 42-year-old McLeod was the subject of seven arrest warrants, including allegedly driving unlicensed and possessing methylamphetamine. He had reportedly failed to appear in court last November.

After handing himself into Frankston police, the musician faced Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Sunday, 22nd July and was convicted and fined $2,300.

The presiding magistrate reportedly told McLeod the fine was “half of what it should have been”, and gave him a stern warning.

“It’s about time you started acting like an adult… you’ve been acting like a nine-year-old, not a 42-year-old,” the magistrate said.

Outside court, McLeod reportedly said he was relieved to be free to perform with The Screaming Jets — who he joined in 2012 — on their 2018 national tour with Boom Crash Opera, which is scheduled to begin in August.

The band are also part of the recently announced Series Two lineup for the 2019 Red Hot Summer Tour.

Craig “Rosie” Rosevear is getting back behind The Screaming Jets drum kit

Newcastle Herald: April 18 2019
Craig “Rosie” Rosevear will momentarily cast off his real estate auctioneer suit to return to The Screaming Jets.

THE music of The Screaming Jets remains in Craig “Rosie” Rosevear’s DNA, despite 18 years having passed since he left the legendary Newcastle rock band.

That’s why Rosevear is fully confident in casting off his real estate auctioneer’s suit and tie momentarily for his old drum kit for two special performances.

The Screaming Jets open their Dirty 30 anniversary tour at Wests Cardiff on May 3 and 4 and for the first time in Newcastle since 2001 Rosevear will be on the drums.

“It all feels very natural to me, and when you’ve played for so long you stick in the groove,” Rosevear said.

“It’ll be good to play with the guys again. After you’ve played with them for so many years and those songs, everything feels very comfortable on stage, both musically and personally.”

Rosevear has remained friends with original members Dave Gleeson and Paul Woseen since leaving the band and filled in on drums at a Sydney show two years and for an appearance on The Footy Show last year.

For this latest tour Rosevear will only play the Cardiff shows before he hands the sticks to Palace Of The King’s Cameron McGlinchey for the rest of the tour.

“They could see an opportunity with it being in Newcastle to do something a bit different and something special for the fans,” he said.

Rosevear was part of the classic Screaming Jets line-up of Gleeson (vocals), Grant Walmsley (guitar), Woseen (bass) and Jimi Hocking (guitar) from 1993 to 2001 when the band produced the albums The Screaming Jets (1995), World Gone Crazy (1997) and Scam (2000).

After leaving the band, Rosevear moved to the US before returning to Newcastle and establishing Rosie’s School of Rock music tutelage for children and venturing into real estate, where he was since hosted his own NBN show, Location…Lifestyle…Living.

Rosevear’s brief return to the Jets will only add further intrigue to the fractious split within the band that has existed since Walmsley left in 2007.

In February founding members Walmsley, Richie Lara (guitar) and Brad Heaney (drums) launched JetsPlayJets with new members Justin Ngariki (vocals) and Paul Coxon (bass) to perform classic Screaming Jets material at music festival Live At The Foreshore.

Walmsley told the Herald in February he wrote a letter to Gleeson and Woseen hoping to bury the hatchet before launching JetsPlayJets, but he never received a reply.

Rosevear is friends with both parties and said the launch of JetsPlayJets was “cool” for fans.

“If you’re a fan of the band, you can see The Screaming Jets, you can watch Grant play or the other guys,” he said. “It all comes from the same source.”
