Well I've been working two jobs for around a month and a half now, all i really do in my free time is sleep and relax playing on the xbox. I need some new hobbies- just guitaring is getting a bit repetative- i enjoy it more when i don't play all the time. If that makes sense.

So yeah gotten back into console gaming, built a few fx pedals and enjoy that greatly. My problem is i want to build stuff but i don't need it... I see a fun little project but back out cos i wont use the end result. Might take up skateboarding again, but i fear i'm too old and boring to be doing that again.

films
PC games (especially online multiplayer ones!)
job hunting
reading books such as 'mixing with your mind' and then never ever revealing any of the secrets ect

Outside of playing guitar/listening to (and acquiring) new music, I enjoy the following:

Reading. I have a voracious appetite for reading. Unfortunately, I'm also an impossibly slow reader, and it takes me weeks to finish a novel. I usually alternate fiction/non fiction to keep it interesting. In the fiction department, I'm a big Stephen King fan (recently converted). In the non-fiction department I'll read anything that looks interesting at the moment.

JRPGs, especially those released by Square, Squaresoft, and Square Enix. I am currently playing Chrono Trigger and FF XI, Midgarsormr server.

Southern Shaolin kung-fu. I study a family system called Fu Jow Pai, closely related to the Hung Gar system.

Old school kung-fu movies, particularily those released by Shaw Brothers during their golden age, 1965-1975.

NYC dive bars. There's nothing like the vibe you get from a classic dive bar. I've been to most of the well-known dive bars in NYC, and am aiming to hit them all eventually!

Tabletop strategy games. My favourites are Axis & Allies and Warhammer 40,000.

NYC dive bars

I 'm seriously interested here. What exactly is a "dive bar" ?   Inquiring Brits want to know.

I teach MMA during the day 3-5 days a week. On the other days, I run and lift weights. Once the sun goes down, it's strictly music. I play over 300 gigs a yer and usually get home between 2-4am, then I write and record til sunrise, sleep til noon, then the cycle starts again.

I also play bass, drums, keys, and a bunch of other weird instruments, but I love my guitars.

Just started going to the gym again, for the first time in 5 years or more.  I've foolishly agreed to do a 10K run in October so I have to make some attempt to get "fit" (relatively speaking)  to avoid doing the last 8K in an ambulance (or a hearse...).

Last time I did any strenuous exercise I was in my late 30s and not too far off my peak health-wise.  Now I'm 44 and well over the top of that hill, rolling fast and gathering momentum (the extra weight helps...).  It'll be interesting to see what happens in the next few months.  :?
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds

Should try Coventry.  I once got in a fight before I'd even got to the bar.

Err...hobbies - Drinking beer in the garden, talking shitee on here, making stuff and planning the next big plan (looking for a new house at the minute)  :D

I play video games.

I also attempt to write them, but I never usually finish them before I start the next one.  :)

Interesting stuff.  I studied Lau Gar when I was younger, which I believe is related to Hung Gar.  It's Wing Chun for me now, getting too old for all that jumping about!!!
