    not to change subjects of this thread....i have never jammed balls off the wall at 3am, if you have thats cool...i have played on an acoustic drumset at 3am...no problem...

    How bout practice anytime and not make any noise on a electric kit that sounds like an acoustic kit...and feed in sweet studio quality audio tracks to boot. There is no better or more professional situation available.

    I bet I get in a lot more skin time (any time) than any acoustic player....and that's what really counts.

    Have you ever played with a TD20?

    lol, the phrase "come down a couple G's" instantly made me aware that they are most likely out of my price range.

    Ridiculously expensive would be the proper term...it's hard to put a price on how much fun I've had with it though...it's so many kits in one....never boring.

    The brains and drum units are all interchangeable (as far as I know), so you can mix and match everything together and reach a compromise, upgrade later, expand etc...

    The TD 9SX is probably half the price (I would think) It sounds pretty nice and uses a lot of the dual triggering shells with rim triggering with the mesh heads and multi-triggered cymbals (the mesh heads are mandatory)

    If you do decide, be extremely careful on Ebay...lots of scammers....check out the largest music store in your area so you can sit down at one with a nice pair of headphones...preferable a drums only store.

    When I watched that clip, I had accidentally had the sound down and thought I was watching a Gene Simmons interview.

    oh man ...hungry...
