thanks for your help.
here is my thoughts. please tell me what you think. Double the sheetrock on the side walls. there is air space behind the side walls.
Build a wall infront of the outside walls, one leading to the outside of the house and the one with the door. Then line the sloped ceiling with bass traps and seal it up best as possable. I also thought about building a small riser for the drums out of 2x6's and insulate the bottom of it and place it on rubber feet to isulate it from the floor somewhat. Dont know if the riser is a good idea or not???? I know I cant isolate it completely but if i can knock out 50-75% of the sound then that should be good enough.
