Second, I just found out today that there are 5 piece, 6 piece, 7 piece, etc, drum sets. Which one do you think a typical senior high school requires you to have? (Like, are 5 piece for beginners or something...?)
At my school you just need drum sticks and they've got everything else there.

Last, is the electric guitar a better choice?
I'm pretty sure there are no electric guitars in generic band, unless your doing jazz band.
