John Orlich is an artisan working in the medium of glass. Most of his
work has been stained glass, but he is a drummer from Detroit's rock
and roll heyday, and he builds glass drums on a very limited production

Roberto Spizzochino; the drums are magnificent in concept, appearance,
and sound, destined to become among the most collectable drums out there.
