The following update has been posted at WHITE LION drummer Troy Patrick Farrell's website:

"Troy officially signs on to rock Rockett Drum Works (founded by POISON drummer Rikki Rockett)! The kit for the Poison'd tour will be one to take a second look at. Troy thanks Bobby Gibb and of course Rikki Rockett for putting a line in the sand, and walking right past it!"
