New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Jane's Addiction drummer Stephen Perkins will visit Vic's Drum Shop, one of America's premier drum retailers, to lead an interactive clinic for drummers of all skill levels on Thursday,

"Stephen is one of rock's most creative and talented drummers," says Victor Salazar, owner of Vic's Drum Shop.

To commemorate Perkins' visit to Vic's Drum Shop, which is the store's 35th clinic in 35 months, Vic's will offer an additional discount off of their everyday low prices on all of the brands of in-stock gear that Stephen utilizes in the studio and his live performances, including:
Drum Workshop drums and hardware
Zildjian cymbals

The exclusive discount - which will be applied to both online and in-store purchases of Perkins-related gear - will begin on the day of Perkins' clinic (September 11) and run through Sunday,

Chicago for a performance by
Jane's Addiction at Riot Fest 2014 in Humboldt Park. "I can't wait to feast my eyes on everything and get my hands on all the gear!"
