Rock Band upgrade

If you have ever played the XBOX or Wii game Rock Band, you know how loud those drum sets are! (Seriously, the designers/marketers of this game must have some major hearing loss if they couldn't figure this out during development.) The drummer for my band, The Plural Squirrels-look us up!, was using men's socks rubberbanded to the drum heads to drown out the sound. For months, I was trying to convince him that I could custom make him something that would look better than socks. Finally, I just had to do it and show him. Now we get compliments whereever we go. He is still trying to convince me to mass produce them, but it is just isn't profitable. Maybe as a side project or to buy my own XBOX 360. It is coming....
