comment on the drum kit:
myself i know very little. but my bf is a drummer. been playing for nearly 7 years, so he knowa a thing or two about drums. I can tell you your best bet is to look on ebay. trust me when i say you'll find things for much cheaper. Going through companies[especially ordering online] is more of a hassle. They also like to rip you off and screw up your orders. I think names you probably want to look at are "Pearl" and "Tama", they sound decent and they're in the lower cost range.
Hope that helps
