Well, My dear wife bought her big drummer boy (me) an alesis DTX7 kit.
All I had previous to that was a drum rack and what pads I could stick to it.
 
Not much but it would lay down tracks.
Not I have a full kit.
 
I did the acoustic kit thing but recording it under 9' ceilings caused lots of phase issues and drum replacement. My old tunes done with an electronic kit sound better so I'm back to that now.
 
Christmas eve we did a candle light service with tea light candles in a Dixie cup (I don't know I'm just the drummer there). Anyway story goes that someone's dixie cup caught on fire that night.
 
We'll likely do something else next year.........
