Do you spend more time on the average day loitering about at Moe's or playing your guitar?
I pass through for a quick pint most days but don't stay long. Still, on average that's still more time than I spend with my guitar in hand.
For me personally, that is not the ratio I desire. I don't regret my time here but I wish to be more disciplined with playing rather than 'thinking' about playing. For someone at my skill level (very low) I need all the time I can get with my hands on a guitar.
What say you?

Multi-tasking is your friend.  |

I barely ever play anymore, so Moe’s wins hands down.

I have 2 bass amps, a bass and a cheap, acoustic guitar that almost never stray further than 10 feet from computer.

Hand issues prevent me from playing guitar as much as I like, so most of my time is spent in the shop making/doing/fixing stuff.

Being retired affords me lots of leisure time. I check in here often but not necessarily for long periods of time. I would say I spend more time playing and working on my guitars than actually reading/posting here. When I get into a recording project I'll often marathon it.

Like Auf, I practice and or work on guitars for more hours than I expend on Moe's. I'm also retired which really helps. However, I'd sorely miss this forum if it were to go away.

Up until a couple of weeks ago, before moving to a nicer house, I played an hour a day, and much more on weekends. This was because I had a detached garage and wasn’t driving my Frau crazy. I love pushing the tubes on my amp so I have to play fairly loud.
Now I’m in a new house that is bigger, but there is no detached garage. The only time I can crank it is when she walks the dog early in the morning. So I stagger out of the rack, get a cup of coffee as she and doggie go out the door, and head straight for my rig and get to rocking!
Later in the evening I use my trusty old Line 6 POD and headphones for another hour or so. I’m taking lessons as well, and some fellow students and I jam a few times a month.
I’m actually playing more than ever.

I play my guitar far more than I post here.
Don't know if it's a fair comparison though, since I can check in from the recliner or wherever.

I go through spells, ever since COVID hit I've been playing a lot. Getting a new guitar I like has helped. too.

Have not been playing much lately. I hope that changes as I move into the new nan cave.
