I bet anything by "The White Stripes" would be nice and easy...

I did actually consider them, but then I listened to the drums, and i was like...wait, is that really all she's doing??

oh, you could get that rock band drumset and practice on that.....right? in anycase, i'd go digital -- i went digital with my piano and have never been happier. as for the tapping noise, i bet the neighbors will get used to that. besides, my rule is saturday, 11:30 to afternoon,all is acceptable. :)
