I'm learning to play the drums!

For many of you this will be new news, I have held a life long dream to be able to play the drums and this year i have taken up the challenge! It started with the purchase of rock band last year and grew this year into a full Electric Drum kit that i've sunk about $1200 into so far. It's a Yamaha DMXpress II kit that i got off craigslist and have added a Roland 12" mesh head and 2 Pintech 16" and 18" cymbals.
 
I hacked into the rock band drum controller and found a circuit that allows me to convert the MIDI signals into relay switches and hard wired that to the controller and presto! but enough talk check out my video i shot of me playing "Hello There" from Rock Band 2 on Expert!!
