Hey all - I have a question about soundproofing, or at least sound minimizing :) My drum room is located above the garage, facing the front of the house towards the street (and all the nearby neighbors). I'm always considerate about my playing times (i.e., not late at night), but would like to install some type of soundproofing material to reduce the volume just a bit facing the street. Our landlord doesn't want a bunch of permanent material stuck to the walls, but I'd like to find something inexpensive to use. Any suggestions? Thanks!!! :)

Not sure how big your space is but several of them on a wall, especially the bass traps would stop some sound. They don't have to be permanently attached either.
