Fun decision that makes a lot of sense, right? Christmas for my family was a lot of gift card “tell me what you used it for” sort of gifts, which l generally prefer these days.

I have enough to get an electronic drum set I could learn the drums on without annoying the hell out of everyone around me (I could use a headset with them). I do want to learn drums some day, but just for fun. There’s no real goal outside if it looking fun to do.

The quality of pressure washer I would want to use would cost about the same as the drum kit and I cannot justify getting booth right now. I have used pressure washers before and I quite enjoy it. Someday I might even consider a cleaning business, so seeing if the magic grows or fades with a quality unit would be helpful.

I lean towards the later just because I don’t know that I have the room for a drum kit right now. Thoughts, opinions?

    Just keep in mind the electronic drums still make noise, just not as much as the real thing. If it’s in a separate room a bit far away from the other people it’s fine but don’t expect to play it next to your sleeping partner in the same room.

      This. Your downstair neighbors will be able to hear the kick drum pedal through the ceiling. They will he able to hear the compressor of the power washer as well.

        Luckily it’d be in a finished basement. Shared walls, but where I’d have the set is as far from the shared wall as out could be.
