HALFORD Drummer Selling Kit Used On 'Resurrection', 'Crucible' Tours
August 22, 2008Drummer Bobby Jarzombek (HALFORD, SEBASTIAN BACH, FATES WARNING) has issued the following update:
"Well, the time has come to 'thin out the herd' so to speak. With my move back to San Antonio [from Los Angeles], I was trying to figure out what to take with me and what to leave out in Cali. One thing I have decided to part with is my Pearl Masters Custom Maple drumset (comes with the Pearl Icon rack system) even though I have a strong sentimental attachment to it due to the memorable music that I created on it.
"The reason I am now selling the kit — other than lack of space — is because I changed drum companies a couple of years ago (I am with DW/PDP now and no longer endorse Pearl) and I haven't been using it much at all since. I'm thinking of putting it on eBay but before I do that I figured I'd let a HALFORD fan or drum enthusiast among my MySpace friends have first crack at it.
"There is quite a bit of metal history connected to this kit: I recorded Halford 'Live Insurrection' (various tracks),HALFORD 'Crucible', and ROB ROCK 'Holy Hell' with it and used it live with HALFORD touring in the U.S., Canada, and South America on the 'Resurrection' and 'Crucible' tours, including the 2000/2001 tour with IRON MAIDEN and QUEENSRŸCHE and the Rock In Rio show in Brazil that's about it be released on DVD. It can also be seen in the 'Betrayal' promotional video.
"This is a great-sounding kit and still in very good condition (I got it in 2000) except for the standard 'wear and tear' from being on the road. No major war wounds though. I have posted a number of photos of the drumset so click here to take a closer look.
"The kit is currently in storage in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles; I would prefer to find a buyer in the area who can pick it up as I'd rather not ship it.
"If you are located outside of SoCal and can't pick up the kit in person shipping costs would obviously have to be added to the selling price.
"I am asking $3.500 — for the complete drumset and drum rack system. Interested parties please contact me at [email protected]."
