    Make sure you've got all the screws off. loosen the brakes, and beat on it
    with a rubber mallet. On genuine drums, there's a fourth threaded hole in
    the drum. Insaead of having a hole in the hub behind it, it's got the hub.
    YHou can thread a bolt (same thread as the screws, but you want something
    with a hex head and force it off that way.
