10/05/07 - Rick has organized a new organization called the "One Hand Drum Company" in conjunction with The Raven Drum Foundation to help with funding for Raven's projects:
"When Rick Allen signs an autograph it is always accompanied by a drawing of a one armed drummer aptly named, "STIK RICK". With so many people always asking "How are you doing"…"how's things" after over 20 years Rick can only answer "Life Is Great!!! Be A Rockstar!!!" This simple statement and the drawing of "STIK RICK" are being featured as works of art by Rick Allen, the artist. Allen states "This is one way everyone can be a part of my organization, One Hand Drum Company". In the near future, you will be able to purchase merchandise that garnishes this brand, it's really exciting and a portion of all the proceeds go to support Raven Drum. Allen exclaimed," We are pleased to have One Hand Drum as a financial partner".
You can read the entire article at the Raven Drum website.
