Answer 1

I played with a drummer who had a bunch of different sized jars hanging on strings that he'd tap on.  I don't know how he did that.  I think he drilled holes without breaking 'em.  Sounded cool.  Crowds loved it.

Answer 2

learn to be innovative about playing your entire set, not just the drum heads and cymbals.

i gave this same advice to a student & he managed to win a guitar center regional competition by playing on the floor, stands, side of drums, rims, etc.

also, a great drummer can get over a dozen different tones from a cymbal just by altering the attack.
