Monday

Played over 2,000 gigs in my life.
Now, I've got a piano, a 6 instrument keyboard rig, 14 guitars, a bass, a mandolin, a violin, an electronic drum kit, 4 amplifiers and a small sound system. Plus a 16 track recording system & about 15 microphones. All but one instrument was paid for with money I made playing in clubs.
Everything I have, except for 2 amps & the sound system are on display in our rec room.
Obviously, my wife doesn't get to decorate in that room. I left her no wall space!

If you're interested in hearing some stuff I recorded, here's a link:
