Always nice to be remembered! Glad you like the goggles. They've been on so long, I don't think I could get them off with a crowbar.

My reaaaal confession, however, is that I've been on everyone of Devi's forums since the old black and green one, and don't know why I didn't find time to anymore. And now everything is alien and frightening, what if this is some kind of cult forum now? Or you're all bots?? Or worse?! Also I sold most of my pedals, rest is at ex house in another country, I don't even know if I'm allowed here.
Dude, you are the one that started the show your guitar thread! I always see your axe when I'm breowsing the forum drunk / on my phone, because I hit the title instead of the tiny last visit button. I've never met you (not even on the internet) but you are legendary to me.

I never look at CL. When'd they start doing the grid thing?

The last I remember seeing it was maybe like 6 months ago? At least that's when I noticed it

I don't know where artistic legitimacy comes from, but I know it when I see it.

lately I've been feeling like I don't need any pedals and all these knobs and features. I feel like I could sell almost all of it and start over and be okay with it.
It's kind of liberating though, and I'm glad I don't feel super attached to them.

I totally know what you mean. I look at my pedalboard and my amps and stuff at least once a day and say to myself that if there was an emergency, I could and would sell all of it in a heartbeat to use the money for whatever it needed to go towards

Shows you how often I look for gear on Craigslist.

Exactly. I sold a bass this weekend I had for 4 years and had played for probably over a 1000 hours and I feel really good about letting it go (I sold it for more than I paid too).
Really reconsidering how I think about gear
and yeah the grid feature is really cool. makes it a lot easier to look at stuff

If I'm not playing with fuzz or effects, I can't tell the difference between solid state and tube, a $30 crate from the pawn shop and a brand new fender twin. They all sound the same to me until I turn on the FUZZ.

I think I might just spend all my 15 minute breaks (where I decide not to smoke/leave my cigs in my car) on my phone in a toilet stall. It's much nicer than the busy break room.
Except when people bust open the door like they're a fucking DEA agent coming into a coke packaging den. Not so Zen.

I skipped like seven classes this semester. I'd still drive to school, but then sit in the car and read.
It's way more peaceful than the library, plus skipping out on obligations to fuck around is somehow much more fulfilling than doing whatever I want with free time.
Also, I haven't touched an instrument all month. So bored with music right now. Things are at a standstill.

i can't get myself into playing to save my life at the moment. i think some of it is that i'm staying in a place that belongs to someone else and thus i'm self-conscious, as well as not having enough room to set things up. but most of it is that my depression and anxiety are all over me these days. there's also a thing going on where i've gotten so much of the equipment, particularly effects, i wanted that i now have no excuse for sounding bad other than me sucking.

I feel this right now too.
