Most rock
drummers are already a notch or two above 'the rest' as the average metal
anthem is dictated by pace and complexity. Closer to the peak, you'll find
those who distinguish themselves by mathematically near improbable rhythmic
complexities that create visions of a mad scientist behind the kit.
But once
you're at the summit, you'll find the likes of Scott Rockenfield - (Queensryche), who not only
possesses the required skills but also translates those in uniquely designed drum
kits that in and by themselves become true rock relics.
Tour
after tour, Rockenfield treats his audience to breath-taking kit designs
that would leave you with that "If I Only Could" feeling. Well, now
you can!
Backstage Auctions is excited to be able to offer three of Rockenfield's classic kits,
straight from his design table and offered up by Scott himself.
QUEENSRYCHE SCOTT ROCKENFIELD 2008 FAMOUS "CHAIN" DRUM KIT
You have to go back all the way to the 1980s to first see Scott Rockenfield using his famous and trademark "chain" drum kit. At the time this was a revolutionary design but it eventually became Scott's true signature kit, admired and desired by fans and drum aficionados around the world. And as they say "back by popular demand", Scott re-introduced his updated and improved version of the "chain" kit on the 2008 Queensryche world tour.
Featured here is a brand new, limited edition full and complete "chain" kit, which is an exact reproduction of the original tour kit, as designed and built by Scott himself.

an 'Operation Mindcrime' fan? This release is arguably Queensryche's signature album from their already impressive discography. This platinum status rock opera concept album from 1988 can often been found in any random 'Top 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums Of All Time' - and deservedly so!
Rockenfield is offering up his limited edition full and complete kit, which is an exact reproduction of the original tour kit, as designed and built by Scott himself and used for the 2007 'Operation Mindcrime' world tour.
