Other than that, is there anything else absolutely necessary to record on a home pc? Maybe a decent mixer when it comes time to record my bros drums, as well as a lot of additional mics but we'll worry about that when the time comes I guess.
Studio Equipment
So I'm going to pick up some Yamaha MSP5s and I've got a decent soundcard and a decent computer. What's a standard studio mic? I'll probably be using it for singing as well as to mic the amp (I've got a little behringer mic pre amp).

well one's for singing, the other for instruments. doesn't help this poor sucker much.
The 57 is often used for vocals, and the 58 is often used for instruments... if you want one mic that does a good job at both, either the 57 or 58 would be a good choice.
If you want to take it to another level, the AKG C414 is a very nice mic that works well on pretty much everything.
