I'd like to get a rug to put under my son's Roland drum kit. The bass pedal keeps sliding around and obviously we don't want to turn the spikes down into the wood laminate floor. My wife doesn't want a rug, she expects it to be a dust magnet. She'd prefer me to build a raised platform, but seeing that it would have to accomodate both the drum kit and said son, I'm afraid it'll take up too much floor space. Darn, I almost had him switch to guitar. I even promised I'd build him a Warmoth but he changed back to drums.
