Did you every play on an electric Drum Set?  

I've played on both and while the conviences of electonic drums exists as you stated, I find that accoustic drum will never die. There are lmitations to the electic set, like doing rim shots and gettting a variety of sound out of a cymbol or drum itself. Also electric set cost about 3 times as much. But they are a lot smaller and easier to carry around.

I find it gorgeous for musicians like you and me who can't obviously make a lot of noises at home .
And trust me,I understand you very much on this coz I wanna learn drums sooo much .
I tried this electro stuffs at a friend house and lol there was a kind of party and I forgot almost everybody there and found myself playing the whole night with the headset .
It's very passionating and so nice for people who live in a flat but I think I'd always prefer the sound of real drums,I guess there are big differences,maybe like electro and acoustic music .
Not that I'm old fashioned in music,I just think nothing could replace the sound of a real drums set .
Happy playing:)

never tried it.i prefer the acoustic man.its got style.but i suppose u wud be saving cash and space on an electric set.

I could not understand how they play drums. I play the organ and my younger son plays the guitar and the drums and also my older son. If my younger son plays the guitar, my older is the drummer.

No. But i heard the aren't very good because they don't feel like a proper set.

I haven't play E-drum kit yet, but once tried, *sits, a little tap on it then out* hahahah, well, for me acoustic drums is the best, but your neighbors gonna be your worst enemy here, luck me, don't have neighbors ^^ You have your advantage there because anytime you can play your kit.

i have the same problem as you, so i also bought a digital drum set. mine's a yamaha dd60. i don't know which is better, but mine's just a compact drum set, i do enjoy playing it, i'm just a novice drummer. but i like playing on an acoustic drumset better. it just feels like whenever i hit my drum pads, i can still hear the sound that my sticks make when they hit the rubber pads.
