What is the best way to clean drum symbols?
Cesar asked:
I bought a couple new drum symbols and i know how they can get damaged easily by miss caring them. One way to prevent them from loosing there sound is by cleaning them regularly. I want to know what is the best way to clean them with regular house hold items. I already know about the lemon and baking soda so I’m looking for more options and different strategies. I don’t want to buy a product from guitar center so again, regular house hold items only please. Thank you

Is it possible to use an electric drum set with Rock Band 2?
sean asked:
I just bought Rock Band 2 for the PS3 last week and it’s addictive but I feel it improving my drum chops a lot already. My only complaint is that the pedal is a little hard to use. Since I have a nice electric drum set, I was wondering if there was anyway I could somehow connect my electric drum set up to my PS3 (at least the kick pedal) and play using it instead of the Rock Band drums. Has anyone tried this and been successful? Any tips or advice would be highly appreciated!
