5b is pretty middle of the road, but I prefer 5as because they are lighter.
Here's my stick of choice:

Notice that I don't get the nylon tips. I like how they sound on the ride, but I used to have problems with the tips popping off, and the next thing I know I have a ton of little dents in my drum heads.
$7.40 on amazon if you've got prime, Guitar center has them ~$6.
Shouldn't have to spend more than $9 on a decent pair of all-around sticks.
Sure thing buddy.
Here's a good drum throne
Standard sticks
And pretty decent Bluetooth headphones. Although I haven't figured out how to use these headphones wirelessly with my kit, they're still really comfortable, with great sound. If you're on a budget, there's a set of wired headphones on that website for $19.99 that are supposed to be pretty good.

I gotta ask this too:
Drum Sticks? I've heard something about "go rubber core", but any reason for that? I have a set my brother has that are different than the RB ones, but I'm not opposed to just sticking to them.

Hey Paradigm84! Guess what. :) I ordered drum sticks and a practice pad. Everything should be here within the next week. I ordered the below items:
Your input helped me in getting this equipment. Thank you!
I would guess that painting on them wouldn't be such a great idea, especially if he's playing on an acoustic kit. Now, there are a large variety of sticks that I like, but my two favourites are Vic Firth 5A American Classics and Headhunters Hickory B Grooves, which you can't get online, but I might be able to send you a pair.
I would love to share the love by linking something cheap that is on my list to give to my boyfriend! I don't have anything for him yet and he is SO hard to shop for, but I am sure he would like this. Also, he deserves it because he stayed home from work today to finish all the laundry, vacuum, bathe the dogs and do the dishes so I didn't have to. I had a bad day and he wanted me to be able to relax when I got home!
These are on my CHRISTMAS wish list:
