Beginning Drummer? What are some things i should consider to make me better.?

So i was at my local Music Shoppe (that's how they spell it!) http://themusicshoppe.com Apparently they had some good drum kits and one of the employees is a drummer (playing for 10 years) and he told me a couple things.
1) Electronic vs Acoustic. At gigs Acoustic looks better. But when i'm doing studio i like electronic
2) We've got some dudes here that teach lessons. He took me to the studio and i found out where they teach you. Well apprantly the drums they use to teach you are just.... practice pads. So i'm not sure keep looking for lessons or great place?
3) He recommended Pearl ( i've heard of it a lot so i took the idea into consideration)

So what do you think?
What advice do you have?

When I was 11, I'd play along to my favorite songs everyday-make it a habit. good luck.

Pearl Rhythm Traveler 5-Piece Practice Drum Set


Pearl Rhythm Traveler 5-Piece Practice Drum Set


$479


Back by popular demand, it's the Pearl Rhythm Traveler Drum Set. This new Rhythm Traveler Special Edition with Black Hardware from Pearl Drums is the perfect drum kit for silent practice, easy transport, and compact live performance. A complete set of ultra-high quality drums and hardware, specifically designed to be lightweight yet super sturdy and highly durable. Rhythm Traveler is great for the working drummer who needs a small, portable kit, the beginning drummer who needs to get started with a high-quality, affordable drum set that can be played anywhere and anytime, or any drummer who's tired of practicing at someone else's convenience.Having trouble transporting your drum set to gigs or rehearsals? The Rhythm Traveler fits in the passenger seat of your car! Since the Rhythm Traveler's toms have only one head they stack neatly for an extremely compact, easy to transport kit. Every facet of the kit, including every piece of hardware, has been designed with the working and rehearsing drummer in mind. Rhythm Traveler is the go anywhere, practice anytime kit of your dreams.With Rhythm Traveler, you get two complete sets of heads - one set of standard, 2-ply ProTone heads for live performance, and one set of Pearl's new Muffle Heads for silent practicing. Muffle Heads are manufactured of a super strong Mesh fabric that responds like a regular drum head while producing virtually no sound. Together with Pearl's Silent Cymbal Pads, Rhythm Traveler produces the realistic feel of a regular kit, complete with rim shots. And changing from a practice kit to a live kit is as easy as changing the batter heads from Mesh to standard and adding cymbals. You'll be all set-up, ready to play, and sounding great before most drummers even unload their kit. And when the gig is over, you're out of there just as quickly.Rhythm Traveler shells are manufactured by Pearl's patented Heat Compression Shell Molding System, which is the same process used for every drum Pearl makes. The bass drum is 20' x 8", and the tom sizes are 10", 12", and 14", with a 5" deep, single-headed design that allows them to neatly stack for compact travel while producing a great tone for live performance. Rhythm Traveler's wood shell snare drum is 13" x 5" and produces a very warm, full-bodied snare tone with excellent "crack."The Rhythm Traveler comes with super-sturdy hardware developed by Pearl to provide maximum stability and durability while keeping weight to a minimum. It features double-braced legs and a low mass, lightweight design, making it the perfect compliment to Rhythm Traveler. Every function and feature of the hardware is straight forward and dependable, with ease of use as the ultimate goal. All pipe joints feature an extended nylon joint bushing providing an extremely strong and stable adjustment system.
