"There are many different drum sets, and when you're a new time drummer, it can sometimes be very overwhelming because there's so many different brands, so many different kinds of drum sets, it's pretty crazy. But really it's all about what kind of style of music you're doing is what's the best way to decide what kind of brand you want. There's Ibanez, the Ludwig drum sets, but it all depends what style you're doing. Like if you're getting in to a metal band you'd want to get a bigger drum set, lots of toms and lots of cymbals do to all those fills and things like that. And a lot of times those are Ibanez. For me personally in my band I have Ludwig which is simpler, there's less drums, there's not hundreds of cymbals and everything like that. I like to keep it simple. So, there are many different kinds, but really it all depends on what kind of style you're looking for. And when you're in a music store as well there's also people to help you out with that as well. So, those are a few different kind of drum sets that I know about."
