6 days a week, unfortunately. expensive stuff too. but all the people there are cool and are musicians. they have all received my training course in impedance and tube handling, etc. and know that if anything ANYTHING were to happen, there would be asswhooping followed by reimbursements.
Guess that explains what happened to Oprah in your avatar...

Someone left his Bassman and Carvin cab at my buddies house 5 years ago. It's still there

. They only jammed once. The guy basically just brought it over and abandoned it

I have been doing the band thing since 88ish. I have always left my gear wherever I jam. No problems yet...

A guy I know did the same thing with a drum set....left it at our rehearsal spot for like 2-3 years, then he eventually came back years later with a brand new drum set to audition for my metal band. He played with us for 3 or 4 months before bailing and leaving us high and dry without saying shit
The set is STILL there, missing various pieces

Friend of mine had a fairly shitty drum set in university. He played at a talent show at the uni's chapel and left it backstage. He didn't go back to get for about six months -- no big surprise it was long gone. He claimed it through his insurance and got a monster new set.
