Thread Starter | You know you're a gearslut when....
Walking into to my less than exciting job has one perk in the morning, I read the latest saying on the rip off calendar. With inspiration from the daily rip-off calendar, "You know you're a redneck when...", I'm proposing the "You know you're a gearslut when...." daily rip away calendar for those who have less than desirable jobs during the day, or just want a good laugh. so i'm gonna start.... You know you're a gearslut when.... -your lottery tickets contain the numbers 57, 58, 47, 67, 87, 251, and 421 -you have your favorite music stores' phone numbers saved in your cell phone Brandon

I can't take credit for this one, but when a similar question was posed.... You know you're a gearslut when "you have posters of EveAnna Manley on your bedroom walls." |

You know you're a gearslut when your mind automatically multiplies the cost of each piece of gear you want times 2, or more...  |

When you run out of rack space for your gear... When there is allways something new you 'need' / want to buy When you dream of a vintage mic collection When you dream of a backline collection When you dream of a vintage outboard collection When you have insomia and wonder who is in the chat room

...your credit card debt is greater than a Kentucky mortgage. ...you call the power company to install a higher amp service; for the second time this year.... ...your neighbors think you're a drug dealer and refer to you as,"the guy with all the strange visitors at all hours of the day and night." ...the last time you got some sun was while waiting for the plane on the tarmac on your way to a gig somewhere. ... your nickname at the coffee shop is"the Vampire" because your skin is translucent from lack of sun. ... your kids have nicknames like, "ratio" and "threshold", and you refer to your lady as "my favorite patchbay" TTFN Jeff

YNYAGSW.... ... you forget that music is the main gear in any session ... and then you remember ... and then forget again ... even though you have plenty of tools to make records that rival anything out there, deep inside you need something else right now, for your own sense of satisfaction and rightness

YKWYAGSW....... You've sold your car to buy more gear and you havnt seen a bar or holiday in several years, your life revolves around studio bed studio and "cost dont matter I gotta have it" is your motto. 24 / 7 / 365 you've got gear on the brain, you chat up chicks with the line "Mogami or Belden?" you keep sayin "this is my last pre, I'll stop after this, honestly". BTW has anyone got any EveAnna posters I'd kill for one |

Intentionally, low ball the bid on a house so that you inevitably lose it. Then take the $50,000 you would have applied towards the down payment and use it to buy more gear for your studio. My wife didn't really like the neighborhood anyway. !!!

... if when you're at a church service you think to yourself, "would God really want the drums that far back in the mix"? I hope I don't go to gearslut hell for that. I bet in gearslut hell you get up every morning and spend the day having someone try to convince you that the focusrite platinum series sounds good.tutt

sorry pedalboy, no insult. I had an Octopre for a year or so, made good money with it but was a changed man when I got a 1073 and four 312's... Everytime I talk s**t about gear on here I feel weird afterwards.

.......you forget your son's 18th birthday because you're in a London pro-audio showroom discussing the virtues of Class A discrete electronics. OK - not funny but sadly true.

YKYAGS ... when your favorite 'songs' are your favorite because of the sound of the gear ... rather than the lyrics or the music. |

...When you're watching Boogie Nights and say "Looke at all those 1176s" or the "But it's our magic on those tapes" scene gives you very bad flashbacks.
