For all those of you from the Massachusetts area who remember Joe's Drum Shop in Beverly, MA.....you all know that it closed down a couple of years ago after the family of the owner tried to keep it going after Joe's untimely passing about three years ago. Unfortunately, they had other life commitments of their own and really had no time or interest in keeping the shop going. Well, last saturday, Oct 13, a new drum shop opened upin Joe's old location with the blessing from Joe's family (they still own the property the shop is in actually)
Those of you familiar with The Drumshop of Portland Maine should be familiar with the man running the new shop in Beverly, MA. Its called The Drum Shop North Shore. They are going to be a full-line drum shop beaing a dealer of several brands, much like Joe's was. Also, they do have most of Joe's old inventory in stock on consignment for the family, so if you are in the market for a vintage kit, an NOS DW kit, or an RMV kit, contact them and check out what they have.
