The auction items were featured on the second season of Netflix’s King of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch – David Amerman (“12-Pack” from I Love New York) supervised the intake of the items, as he was a drummer prior to his work at Goldin. “Filming with David Frangioni at his museum was a surreal experience,” he says. “I was looking forward to coming down to Florida when I first learned of the collection of drum kits and am so grateful that I was given the opportunity to not only see the museum in person but to also have the opportunity to play on the kit Alex Van Halen played on tour. Van Halen is one of my brother’s all-time favorite bands and I grew up listening to them. I’m also very fortunate that our journey together is only beginning with the reality show and continues to grow as we begin to auction off these historic drum kits!”
