The best deal for an interface is a Tascam US1800 (16 channel USB) for around $300 and you really don't need anything else to convert analog to...

There was a great article in Tape-Op a few issues back about recording drums - I seem to remember something about him recording in a stairwell once! But ya know they say 50% of all memories are false...
