What do you guys do on weekends?

 

I used to sleep during the weekend as I couldnt sleep at all from monday to friday, I would only get up to go and play when I had gigs.

 

Then I started sleeping better and played almost all week (in the studio) so sat-sun I would go out of town with my fiance (mainly to the beach or to her parent's town)

 

Now I dont get to play as often, so I send my better half to her parent's house most of the weekends and stay here playing guitar at high volumes =D>

 

What do you guys do?

It varies from week to week.... This weekend I started some mods on a few guitars.... Next weekend I've got 2 shows.... But generally I just play guitar while sitting on the couch.... I don't like not playing because I feel when I take long periods off between gigs those shows aren't as good.... When I'm not playing guitar or working on one I like to hang out with a friends.... Have a few drinks.... Nothing exciting at all.

I actually try to do much of what is on the list and sometimes I don't get time to play guitar =D>

 

I always was sort of amazed at Jeff Beck's attitude - when he wasn't touring one of his passions are his hot rods and I read somewhere that he seldom plays guitar when he's home because he is working on those hot rods. He said the long break actually helps him develop a new creative approach to guitar once he's back on the road.

Most of my weekend playing, if it's not a gig, is done early in the morning or late at night. But today, I had a rare 1/2 hour of the house to myself. I took advantage and went to the basement for a little plugged in action.
