Bring the Music Back!
Charity drum head auctions help benefit music students affected by Hurricane Katrina
Between December 1 and December 10, 2005 DrumART.com auctioned off the the following celebrity custom bass drum heads - many of them designed and autographed by the artists themselves. The effort raised over $5000 for the Mr. Holland's Opus foundation to help put musical instruments back into the hands of music students displaced by Hurricane Katrina.
We are proud to have been able to help in the effort to help bring the music back to New Orleans and the Gulf Coast region.

high-resolution photos of each head.

Dimmu Borgir may be a bunch of scary, scary dudes, but apparently their hearts are in the right place because they gave us permission to recreate this head exclusively for this auction. There are only two in existance. This is one of them.
