Musical equipment, plane and concert tickets, Mexican food, furniture, magazine subscriptions, coffee, shoes, clothes, beer, car insurance, painting supplies, barbecue, video rentals and lots of gas.
I’ve had a credit card in my name for more than year, and judging by the list above, I’ve put some pretty stupid things on it. I’ve charged more than $50 in ’80s horror rentals, more than $100 in shoes (they clean though) and countless amounts of breakfast tacos and Mexican beer.
I don’t have a lot of regrets, though. I stand by the $550 in recording gear I put on my card, as I am now a critically acclaimed producer. Well, at least I hope to be one soon. The $40 I charged to see drum and bass artist Dieselboy play in the same venue as Norwegian black metal band Mayhem was a solid choice.
