Have really enjoyed reading this thread! Lots of great reasons!
I played piano for years when I was young and then picked up the guitar in my early teens. Was in a couple garage bands in high school, but found alcohol and drugs about the same time. Eventually sold all musical things(except ‘79 Strat) for my addiction. On January 26th 2015, I got sober. I was told to stay busy, so out comes the Strat. I pick up a Blues Junior and discover there are a LOT of musicians in recovery. About 6 months in, I met a guy with 25 years and a Martin. We have been playing together ever since. Added a sober drummer and base player a couple years ago. Rebos Brothers Band. Rebos is sober backwards.
Today, music is a HUGE part of my recovery. It’s how I meditate. It’s how I decompress. It’s how I reach serenity. It’s how I talk to my Higher Power. It’s how I survive in the crazy world.
As far as collecting, did I mention I have addiction issues!
