 Re: Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS)
Author: Chris C

Alas, I can only scrape up a lowly 17 points. :-(

But as I've only been attempting the clarinet for a few weeks (since Christmas), this does seem to be a promising start.

Perhaps bonus points could be awarded for shortness of time as a player, and for buying more equipment whilst still lousy with the gear you already own?

Maybe I can also claim points for prior infection with other strains of GAS? I have around ten other instruments all patiently waiting for me to progress from inept to mediocre.

So many enthusiasms, so little time...... but clarinet has rocketed to the top of the heap in the short time that I've owned one (OK, two. I couldn't possibly own a clarinet without wanting to take it all to pieces and fiddle with it, so an extra one to play in the meantime seems like the barest essential minimum...).

Cheers,

Chris
