Hey everybody, over the past couple years I've been learning to play some guitar and really enjoying it. A while back I decided it'd be nice to learn to play some drums, and eventually bass. I grew up playing the trumpet (I played a LOT) and while I always enjoyed it, I was never motivated by it. Even though I suck horribly at guitar, I enjoy playing it more than the instrument that I know what to do with. Now I'm learning all the stuff (music theory etc.) that I should have known back then. Go figure.
After quite a bit of research, yesterday I decided to order a DM10 studio kit. I wanted something that was going to be good enough that it will encourage me to play, but not so expensive that it'd be silly for a first drum set (I'm looking at you, Roland stuff). I wasn't crazy about learning on an acoustic set due to the noise. I don't have neighbors but I do have a wife, and I'm not betting on being a natural at drumming.
Anyway, hopefully the kit will arrive early next week sometime... I figured I'd say hello as I'll probably be hanging around and looking for setup tips, etc.
