Regina Ann "Gina" Schock (born August 31, 1959 in Baltimore, Maryland) is best known as the drummer in the all-woman rock band The Go-Go's.Schock's career began as drummer for Edie and the Eggs, a band assembled to feature the John Waters star Edith Massey. After her stint in Edie and the Eggs, Schock relocated to Los Angeles, California, and soon joined The Go-Go's. Schock recorded and toured steadily with The Go-Go's until the group disbanded in 1985 and reformed a few years later. She had open-heart surgery before the tour supporting the band's 1984 album Talk Show. In 1985 she was occasionally seen on television appearances as the drummer of the Norwegian band a-ha. However this was just for promo on television as she was never part of the official band.
