How I did it: Learned guitar hero world tour first, then bought Yamaha DD65 and connected it to guitar hero. then bought metallica, then bought double pedal, then learned metallica expert+, then played at a corporate event (practiced DD65 and rented a studio for an hour to practice real drums) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_1qgS3-4y0, then bought Roland TD4 and practiced some more, then played a concert at another corporate event =) Read how I did it…
I learned to play the drums through guitar hero. Now I bought my own set and have played in a couple of corporate events. The great thing about guitar hero is that it is almost like the real drums. Then you just have to learn dynamics when you take up the real drums and you’re all set. Of course, it also helped that I’ve been a musician for quite sometime now.
this will be extended by 1 year, it will now be at Feb 2010… we bought a house
