POISON Drummer's CHOP SHOP Under Consideration For Reality-TV Show

February 20, 2007

Chop Shop Drum Company, which counts POISON drummer Rikki Rockett as one of its partners, is rumored to be under consideration for a reality TV show similar to "Orange County Choppers", only in this case it will be showing the making of custom drums each week instead of custom bikes. No further information is currently available.

Chop Shop has been gaining popularity with young and seasoned drummers alike since it’s inception in 2001. Customers worldwide have sought out Chop Shop to create one-of-a-kind, completely custom drums, which are handcrafted to the player's exact specifications.

"Today's drummers are more educated as to exactly what they are searching for in their drums," Chop Shop Drum Co. founder Brian Cocivera previously stated. "They have decided to seek out the smaller boutique type companies that can build exactly what they want, as opposed to whatever is available at the local music store."

In addition to the tried-and-true classic North American rock maple drums produced by Chop Shop, the company also offers birch, acrylic, aluminum, titanium, steel, and brass shelled drums. "Our goal has always been to produce some of the world's finest sounding drums, and offer customers unlimited options, and the most advanced finish options the drum community has ever seen," said Cocivera.
