MÖTLEY CRÜE's Tommy Lee and the STREET DRUM CORPS' Frank Zummo will present "Bezerk" — an exclusive project commissioned by Guitar Center, featuring some of today's top drummers and artists — as part of the upcoming Drum-Off Grand Finals, taking place January 8 at The Wiltern in Los Angeles. Artists performing in "Bezerk" include Chad Smith (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS),Matt Sorum (GUNS 'N ROSES, VELVET REVOLVER),José Pasillas (INCUBUS),DJ Aero, Sully Erna (GODSMACK),Jay Weinberg and BANG!.

These all-star drummers will all come together on one stage to celebrate the night's main event: performances by the top five undiscovered drummers in the nation, who will compete in front of a capacity crowd and a panel of celebrity judges to see who will win a prize package worth more than $40,000 and the title of "Guitar Center Drum-Off Champion" — the nation's top undiscovered drummer. Guitar Center will also induct drum icons Billy Cobham and John Bonham into Guitar Center's Drum Legends as part of the evening's festivities.
