Feel ripped off that they want you to spend $300 for the RockBand 2 drumset? Or worried that in a couple of years, you’ll have hundreds of plastic drumkits scattered around your house? 
Here are some ways to pimp your existing hard-earned Rockband 1 drumkit.
Buy Silencers:

Create your own Silencers:
Buy a real drummer’s seat:

Reinforce/replace that flimsy plastic kick pedal:

Add ability to use double kick pedals!! (~$25):

Ok, now get out there and give Lars Ulrich, Neil Peart and Mike Portnoy a run for their money!
