Good decision! lol. I had to play drums and bass guitar for my part in the school production. The bass was easy because I knew how to play guitar and piano, and bass is just a mixure of the two, but drums was hard! I had to swing it, and I kept getting tired and just hitting it lol.
Peace, Rotae

Drums was easy until I had to swing it, and then you had to concentrate so hard! lol.

You should try the local bands. Musicians are always willing to teach their craft, and I'm sure there's a good drummer somewhere who could do with the money!

With the keyboards/piano I'd definitely find a good teacher. Once you can play piano, all of the other instuments come. Guitar is essentially piano played a different way. I've been playing piano for almost 12 years now, and I can play both guitar and drums because of it (plus a few others ) Peace, Rotae
