Thinking there is an addiction going on here

[Bradfo69]

Purely for the hell of it, and because I needed to see it with my own eyes, today I decided to inventory the crap I've bought in the slightly more than 2 years that I've been into this lighting and lasers thing. I've come to the conclusion that I'm out of my damn mind!!

I'm thinking a GIANT retardo face is appropriate over this little thing ->
Oh yeah... and a little red $4 keychain laser pointer

Why yes, I'm single.... why do you ask??

[Bradfo69]

Oops.. I lied. The Sound Tech speakers and shoplights with blacklight bulbs were bought 4 years ago. My bad.

[gottaluvlasers]

Ummm.....

yeah, it is safe to say that you have a SERIOUS addiction!

However, as your sponsor, i feel it is imperative for me to say the following:


You need more!

lol- just got your 1.2W/640 in. time to build now huh?

-Marc

I'm thinking a GIANT retardo face is appropriate over this little thing ->

You mean this one...

[steve-o]

You are filthy-rich, no?

[Phredy1]

You are filthy-rich, no?

Probably like me he was well off until the laser addiction.

--------------------------------------------------------------

I've had 2 years and have not got quite as much stuff as you, but close. It's good to be single! Lasers are cheaper than being married and cheaper than therapy!! If I hadn't got married (and divorced) 4 times I could have a 66w Arctos....or two.

A 1.2w 640? Dammit! I just got a 600mw Kvant 640. Marc, why didn't you tell me there would be a competition for the biggest 640?

[Bradfo69]

@ Marc..... yee haa!! Beginning of October to now has been a long cold winter. Time to get this sucker put together!

@ Aaron.... Yep. That's the one I'm talking about!

@Steve-O.... no, not rich exactly. I keep getting paid every week but my bank account hasn't changed in months. Humm... don't know how that could be. I've just found screaming good deals on things. I won't buy it unless it's a steal for the price but seriously... I'm about done. Part of my reason for doing this is to determine what's going up for sale because I've found some of it I haven't used or it's not as cool in person as it was on the manufacturers video. Plus, sometimes less is more. I recently did a gig with a lot on the list and it was TOO busy with all the light movement. I'm fortunate in that I haven't had much in the way of expenses for awhile and have been able to afford to play. :0)

@Phredy... Believe it or not, I kinda WANT a relationship to get my mind and time off this silly laser stuff!

[allthatwhichis]

Well, if you happen to need someplace to store some of that... I got some space at my house.

[Vidal Wolf]

WoW.

I dont have nearly the amount of lighting as you,but DaYum! Yah need a lighting designer to run your lights?? =)

It's a trick.....the smaller head doing the thinking! Noooooooo.....
