OK. Didn't catch up with the thread before posting and already drunk... BUT don't even get me started with A. Ral. His fiasco happened my first year with NPS in SE Utah. What an f*-king idiot; now a cult hero. ::face palm emoji:: I hope they get what's come to them. ufcking idiots. ** ... been dinking with the neighbor....
It's the same with Aron Ralston. Movie - Book - Speaker ..... Of course had he done what he should have and informed someone where he was going and when he planned to return he wouldn't have had to cut his own arm off. Probably would have lost it anyways to be fair but no spending the days in the canyon alone and using a leatherman to do it.

Ever have the urge to buy shiat just to buy shiat!

Crabby knows this but I'm a really shiatty bass player and I already have 3 basses but really want to buy a new Yamaha bass. I dont need another one I really only play two of the ones I have, but I have had Yamaha bike and they are really good my 13 year old has a Yamaha keyboard and is getting ready to join her high schools vanguard and she is going to need a better clarinet for that and Yamaha is the brand everyone says buy... so I should just get me a Yamaha bass too right?

I'm looking for help justifying this to the wife BTW. I mean the clarinet gonna set me back a grand or so, so 400 on the bass is cool right?

If it makes me smile and I can afford it I usually buy it if it's something I'm into. When it no longer becomes "cool" I sell, trade or gift whatever said item is..

Just about the only upside to the wife leaving. If I can afford it, I do it. I don't need to discuss it or justify it with anyone. Another reason I'll never get married again.

That said, you got a deal on the pair. $1300 for the clarinet and $100 for the bass. The kids music class was important. So you spent some extra coin on the woodwind. And they had a deal on the bass. It was only $100. So why not?

Ok I'm getting the bass once some of my commissions from work come in. Now a proud Papa moment my kid who is my 3rd by the way picked up an instrument for the first time 2 years ago during covid. Her first music classes were all virtual got invited to play with the high school band this year. At the regional they scored higher than they ever had and now is invited to play with the high school vanguard marching band. She's going into 8th grade. I'm not sure whether to be proud or jealous that she has picked up music so quick. I have spent the better part of 20 years trying to be pretty crappy at music!!

Stupid kids!
