Honestly the whole kit cost around the same price as a reasonably priced Piebald, so i go EVERYTHING for a steal or the person didn't know what they had. I am a huge Rush fan so of course i had to get some Roto Toms, Cowbells, and many different cymbals to accomedate for different sounds. I play everyday for at least 15 mintues, sometimes over 3 hours, but i always WANT to play and never have to force myself.
Drums are great because i can just listen to music and try to play along with it and learn new stuff as i go. I am all self taught and taught myself by playing to rush music. Of course i could never play most of the stuff he does, so i had to push myself and i still do everytime i try to play YYZ or Limelight, or whatever.
I'm not rich and i don't get any money from anyone else except myself so everything here was bought with my own money, so anyone can have a really nice kit and not spend a bunch of money. My kit might be WORTH $3000, but i payed a third of that.
