As someone who likes to bang around on the ol' drum-diddly-ums, and who also hates noise pollution like a man far older and crankier than I, I can appreciate both sides of the argument.
However, I appreciate the argument of the neighbour to an absolute degree. Drums are loud, interfering and impossible to ignore. I don't know how good your drummer buddy is, but if what troutman keeps mentioning is any indication, he probably isn't very good.
Few things are worse than a loud, bad drummer.
Get some electric drums and go to town.
