I’m out as well...been down this path many times and they all lead to gear worship.  Somehow the real fire for music is diminished!  Good luck

Be careful of joining a “Club”....you may find yourself in a position of not being able to “Get Out!”  Rich wankers will always want the exclusive option, despite performance.
