Yamaha DTXpress/DTXplorer/DTXtreme

Hello everyone & thanks for letting me join. I'm William from San 
Antonio, TX. I have a strong interest in learning how to play the 
drums. My biggest influence is Ginger Baker (mostly from his work 
in "The Ginger Baker Trio"). I also like Be-Bop Jazz, too as well as 
Alternative (Radiohead, The Cure).

I like electronic drums and would like to know if this is the way to 
go for my "first kit" to learn drumming, or to just buy "a regular" 
kit. I've been pricing 5 pc. kits at Musician's Friend and have been 
considering that route.

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. I also bought & watched a 
DVD on drumming for beginners, so I'll know what to expect. Thanks!

--- William
