Serhat T asked:
I’m playing the drums for about 3 years, but I’ve never had a drum teacher. People around me are telling me that I play great. Is drum education really necessary to become a good drummer, play in a band, perhaps become famous???

Where can I find some ideal drum loops/software for recording?
Klondike Bar asked:
I am a guitarist and I do not own a drum set, but I do have a keyboard with drum kit presets and I also have Fruity Loops 8 so I can easily make my own loops, but they don’t sound too real. I want some rock/pop/punk/blues drum loops that sound really nice and are in a variety of rhythms. Basically I want to make it sound like I have a drummer. Haha.

What kind of drum set should we get our son?
MOMSTER asked:
Our youngest son is going to be graduating from high school in May, and we want to get him a drum set for his grad. gift. He was on the drumline all four yrs. in high school. He’s a good drummer, but has never had a set of his own. He hopes to continue to play, maybe in a band someday, too. Would it be better to get him a regular drum set or an electronic set? Our budget is about $2,000 or so.
