Well then I'll agree with hellsbells.....you have as much a right to make noise (at long as they aren't at unsociable times) as he does. So if he gets narcy about it, next time he uses a lawn mower/tree strimmer/ drill complain and see what he says.....say that you are trying to study and you can't with his drill noise...

alright, hes not budging a bit, i just talked to him. So i think im moving down to the car port. (my dad lived down there) so its not really a car port anymore. and im gonna put a heater down there and stuff. thats my only solution if i wanna play without putting drum mutes on my drums 24/7. so im mainly worried about my drums getting wrecked from the change in temperature because there still will be some even with a heater. so any suggestions on keeping my drums in tact like putting heavy blankets over it? anything!

Sorry dude, but you can't help the heads warping slightly as the temperature changes, unless you turn the car port into a climate controlled enviornment. If he is being unreasonable, then stuff him. You have as much right to make noise as anyone else, he can't legally stop you, as long as you are doing it at a reasonable hour. You live in America yeah? Take him to court under a civil suit of breaching your constitutional and civil rights to expression of freedom through music and art. Get a judge to order an appropriate time for you to be able to play and tell him to f himself basically.

Exactly Lafrin, you have the right to play your drums..... This guy needs to get a life, he may be messing with one of our future drum gods!

There are things you can do to moderate the effect though.

Just putting a blanket over your drums when you're not using them makes a big difference (trust me, I grew up learning drums in a wood shed).

PS - mexicancounciloffood, horns up for the SunnO))) image. Those guys are insane, they're playing in Sydney soon with Boris; I'm gonna go check it out.

Um......I could come over and pummel him senseless, if you like. Just a thought.
