I have varied interests besides music and guitars. My guitar collection has doubled since the beginning of the year. But I also collect several other things. I used to collect sports cards and memorabilia. I still have my collection, but none of it is displayed. I may pull out a few of my prized possessions and display them, but I'm quickly running out of space. Here are some of the things currently on display in my office (or studio, or mancave... take your pick). Funko POPs -- currently limited to Funko POP Rocks! and Vegas Golden Knights figurines. I have a few more Iron Maiden POPs to get, some of them are a bit hard to find. I need two or three more to finish GnR, Ozzy, and AC/DC, and quite a few to finish Queen and KISS. I haven't started on the Hendrix line. I'm not sure if I will, due to space limitations. I think I have all the VGK figurines currently available, including the team's mascot, Chance. I initially planned to collect the Star Wars, Marvel, and GoT figurines, but there are just way too many of them -- I'm planning to sell or trade the few I have. I have a collection of POP keychains, mostly Marvel, with a few Star Wars and Incredibles items included, but I'm no longer actively collecting these. Some other things I collect are watches (especially pocket watches), resin pyramids, resin dragons, Tarot and Oracle cards, rocks, minerals, and crystals (my BS degree is in Geology), and Iron Maiden night lights (have many still to buy). I need a bigger office. So, tell me... besides guitars, stompboxes/pedals, what do you collect? Include photos if you can.

When I read or hear about someone being a Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced level player: Exactly what differentiates one from another?? Is there like a bridge you have to cross or a test you have to take???

Would love to know how many of you are playing out - solo or in a band? Anyone here do open mic events? Or are you just practicing and playing for fun? Personally, I have sang in several bands, but have recently begun playing some originals (guitar and vox) at open mics.
