    Seriously.  I don't know if they're that price everywhere, but it seems that Walmart wants them out of their store BAD and I was happy to oblige.  If you can find one for that price, I'd suggest you jump on it because there's no way this deal's going to last long.

    $8?! That may as well just say FREE.

    That is insane, if I weren't so terrible at the drums I would actually check and see if my Wal-mart was doing that. Seriously though, $8? I can only imagine they are clearing them out for Lego Rock band and Band Hero or whatever.

    I got 2 360 sets and my friend got a PS3 one.  Since we got the last 3 in the store, those were the only ones I saw.

    Are they the RB1 or RB2 sets? The RB2 sets have the black circle in the center of each pad I believe. Hell of a deal either way.

    @Equal_Opportunity_Destroyer497:  It's for the RB1 drums; cheapassgamer.com has a thread about it.

    It's the Rock Band 1 drum sets by the way.  The only real difference between them is that the first ones are louder.  Yeah they're wireless, but where are you going to take those that them being wireless would be necessary.

    I fell for it.  After spending less than half the amount on drums for the game and after spending over a year not playing the game, I just bought $45 in Rock Band songs

    And now I've gone and spent twice that.
