9.23.2007 - Shawn's Drum Kit?

Dear Scorpion,

I just saw Dave, Glen, Shawn and James in St. Louis and was blown away by Shawn's new drum kit!

Could you please tell me is that a 1 of a kind set up with the cage and all and is it hand painted or is the artwork just "printed" on?

Thanks!

Dave

I presented your question about the new kit to Shawn Drover and this is what he had to say:

"The 'Mega-cage' was made by Furguson fabrication, out of Tempe, Arizona, who specialize in creating funny-cars/hot-rods, etc. For my drum-kit, the artwork was taken from the toxic oil drum on the U.A.
record, then applied by "Rockenwraps", which is owned by Scott Rockenfield of Queensryche. The wrap can be taken off the kit, retaining the original finish, which on my kit is a brown/black bubinga wood finish."

Good stuff, gotta love those caged drummers! Until next time, keep those questions coming and happy Autumn.
