Just wonderng...

How many of you guys have had to sit down and have "the talk" with yourselves regarding spending to much money on gear?

I swear im just looking for stuff to buy now...I think I need to be on that 'intervention' show for addiction to music equipment.

(all in humour of course...i think..lol)

It used to be get stuff because it's cool or collectable. Now that I'm in a band it's "oh crap I actually need that" - stuff becomes different like PA, monitors, etc.
 
I have too much plastic to pay for everything, which's why i owe quite a bit...but the amount of time I play I think i deserve what i have
 
I thought about it sometimes.

I relate to it like this. If you have apassion you should not have any problem making sacrifices (spending $) on it. Think about dating. You like sex right? You spend $ (regardless of how- date expense usually but some resort to employing those of the oldest known profession). You like to play guitar? obvioulsy.... What's the difference? I have been put in the doghouse though for buying gear (no sex) in that case I was forced to fondle my gear (no pun intended). I have also been a winner all the way around for having bought gear for the ol' lady. So, take it for what it is worth. It is important to spend $ on the things that make you happy once in a while (pun if you are reading between the lines).
