DanvillRob Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 It's related to guitars' date=' but not a guitar it's a [img']http://www.infovisual.info/04/img_en/037%20Saxophone.jpg[/img] I guess a non-musical addiction would be travel. I love to go to new places and see new things. Notes Now that you mention it... I was given a violin for my birthday last year.... It was my Father-In-Law's when he was a kid, so it has to be at least 85 years old...don't know if it was new when he got it, (he's been gone for 30 years). Anyway, I took it to a local place to get "set up" and buy a bow. It cost me $200 to replace the bridge, strings, sound peg, etc...another $200 for a new bow...so my "gift" from my SIL, cost me $400 bucks before I could even play it..... now I need to get my left hand doing something TOTALLY foreign to it! The left hand ain't too bad.... even without frets, I can find the notes....and the tuning is like a mandolin, so I can "feel" my way around that side....

Cruznolfart Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Here are my other passions. Well...except for that pumpkin hangin' over my belt...that ain't there any more. But Gramma and my sickle and our critters are all I care to spend much of my time with anymore when I'm not jammin' or workin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shnate McDuanus Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 In agreement with Highwaynine. Books are awesome. Also, steak. I love steak, but only eat it about once every two months (it's expensive, and besides I've got to keep my gastrointestinal system in good working order!) so I guess you can't really call it an addiction. But yeah, I love steak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzy Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Books... MAN, I feel ya'! If I'm not playing guitar (when my wrist screams "no more!") I am writing short stories or reading a classic *coughliteraturesnob My days aren't complete until I work out. This is how I earn the right to each chocolate I can substitute one workout for a 2 hour walk or 2 vigorous conversations with my boyfriend. Danvill, WOW nice choices. Non-70s speed deamon car I would pick: Aston Martin...blames James Bond. +1 gib forums ...it was more of a lap dance than a hump, but yeah...I have no shame. >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riverside Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Fuxk if I know? Which bike? Any bike. Might surprise you if you go looking. That's usually the case when someone pimps "American" Iron for the sake of naming the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilliangirl Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I love cars, always have. I also love roller coasters. Anything that goes fast really. I love watching those F18 point-of-view videos online. What a hoot! My current non-guitar addiction is horses. I see one in my future <gazing into crystal ball> Actually, I've always loved horses. Now that I'm older and only working part-time I actually have time to get back into riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverside Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 And your point is? Other than to sh!t on my bikes? I love your bikes. I wish I owned even one. As it stands, I only have one old nasty Honda (manufactured in Marysville, OH.) It's just that your bikes might not be as American as you think. Harley has been buying parts from Japan for years now.
