But, when I was 15, I was becoming a little bit pissed about it. I decided to start taking some private lessons with a local teacher, and I'd pay them with my saves. Three months later, I started studying with Gustavo Meli (MD 2001 Undiscovered Drummer Contest Winner), and my parents saw that this was more than just a "capricious hobby".
Later, after a year...drumming was my main interest. But yet, I couldn't buy my own drum kit. So I studied for about 2 and a half years with Joe's Morello Book "Master Studies" with just a practice pad and a pair of drumsticks, while I kept on saving money.
Finally, I bought my first drum kit, and nowadays I'm looking forward to developing my professional career.
