Well, I have converted our garage into a drum room, Our neighbors cant hear it (were in townhomes) however my parents can (Our living room is directly above our 9 foot high garage. Is there a cheap way to sound proof the roof somewhat? So I can play whenever I want? My budget is anywhere up to 100 dollars? If that is reasonable
So egg cartons are good? Is there maybe a link to a youtube video demonstrating? Where could I buy these?

I particularly need drum shades (not the scalloped edge kind).. the simple drum shades.
Also I need just the FRAME.

I have a double door garage and play drums, do you think I would have to build a soundproof room within a room
