Roadievision: See the Rock Band drum kit setup

Nice Phisher-Price drum kit. I should get one of those for my nephew. Wait, isnt that thing like $80.

Looks good but I want the cowbell instead.

All I want to be able to do is place the appropriate drums in my own place. Even if I have to buy another rack separately, I want to set it up like my drum kit.

Looks good to me. I was worried about how much space this thing was gonna take up, but I guess that problem was just solved.

it's a video game people, i don't remember hearing much complaining that the guitars only have ONE STRING!

Imbeciles

Sweet drums! I wonder how durable they are.

I realize this is a game and a highly unrealistic one, but as a drummer, playing this contraption will be difficult and frustrating. As a game controller, it's ok, but if they wanted to offer a drum kit, they should've stuck to a flat drum pad with 7+ pads (hi-hat, ride, crash, snare and 3 toms) rather than try to immitate a real drum set up while sucking so bad at it.

The guitars look like guitars.
The mics look like mics.
This looks like an infant's toy.

Why do drummers always get the shaft?!

My question is how much "Feedback" with the Bass/Kick Pedal have? will it have the approriate "Response" after i press on it with my foot? will it pop back up into place quickly much like normal Bass pedals? also will i be able to rest my foot on the pedal without it being pressed in?

Hey, What do you call the person that hangs out with 4 Musicians?

...



A DRUMMER!

BA-DUM-TSsst

Tell that to Rick Allen, Ed!

Where's the little hand cranky thing that plays "All Around The Mulberry Bush"? My 3 year old niece will love it. Does the little pedal laugh like Elmo when you stomp on it?

Just when gamers finally start shaking their dorky/nerdy reputations, Milton Bradley comes along and fucks it up for everyone.

I think he stole the drum-kit... Did you hear the cops in the background??

What did the drummer do when he locked his keys in his car???

spent 2 hours trying to figure out how to get the bass player out of the back seat...

Being a drummer it's obvious you have no clue that the guitars really don't resemble real guitars either. They are just as awkward for real guitarists to play.

Looks great!

Is there a lefty toggle for the hi-hat and snare?

I want a high hat too, but I want it to sound and feel just like a real one....I want a deep kick drum with plenty of punch...a snare with the woody sound and depth of an 8" vintage Yamaha RC....Paiste signature crashes and splashes....Sonor Phonic Plus toms.....a nice roc n soc throne.....oh! and please make the shells from 9 ply bubinga wood. Thanks and let me know when this happens. I'm ready to rock and refuse to adapt to anything other than a real set.....unless they make them at least as good as a set of Roland V drums with the TD 20 module......let me know when that happens too.....I'll use the Rock Band set for real live concert/studio play.....That'd be great.....hurry up and fix it!!...Oh........please also throw in a few pairs of Steve Gadd signature sticks with nylon tips.

As you all may as well discover when playing this game, when your rocking out on the drums, you tend to hear that noise that you just cant do away with unless you crank up the tv. Well, I found a solution for it without turning the TV way up, letting you actualy enjoy the sound of the game, instead of the sound that your drum kit is making.

This site rockbanddrumpads.com offers a sleak option of 2 mm pads that just apply right to your drum kit and make the sound disappear almost completely. It is very affordable (27$ with shipping included) and looks very nice. Alot nicer then the standard drum kit I think.

So if your tired of hearing your drums over the song, give this a try.
