The folks at Mad Catz have sympathy for any Rock Band enthusiastist who's tired of hearing their non-gaming significant other, parent or roomate say, "What's all this friggin' crap in the living room all the time?"
And they've come up with a solution: portable drum pads that can be placed pretty much anywhere - a coffee table, a chair- and neatly tucked away in a closet or drawer when rocking out is over.
Designed to withstand over 1 million strikes (we have no idea how many songs that comes out to, but it sounds like a lot), the durable rubber construction ensures the drumheads will outlast your frenetic bashing. (Well, unless you're, like, super-gonzo or something.)
Featuring an ultra-thin navigation panel for easy in-game setup, a pair of soft-tip two-piece replacement drumsticks and a remote kick drum pedal, everything you need to play drums is included. Easy to assemble and play and even easier to fold away for quick storage.
Pretty soon, we'll be able to rock out to Rock Band on the train, or on a bus, or in a plane, or while eating Green Eggs & Ham.
Granted, they might not feel as authentic as bashing the real thing - the original Rock Band drums pads don't exactly come close - but they will save you some arguments, and that's worth the price of $59.00US.

“They all said he was crazy. The whole industry said he's going off the deep end. Who would even buy a guitar or a piano over the internet? And he just stuck to his guns. For him everything was doable": See behind the scenes as Thomann turns 70
