I'm with you there. Right now I have plenty of space not to bother the neighbors, but we may have to move to a smaller place, and if we do, I may need to switch to an electronic drum set.

I can't really put my finger on why I don't like electronic drum sets, but when I see a drummer on an electronic set in a gig, somehow I feel cheated. Isn't it kind of analogous to someone playing a synth instead of a piano? (Somehow it feels like it's not, but I don't know why...)

Maybe if you buy the electronic set that might encourage you to get into some decent recording! Chicken and egg issue? :)
