"Uncle Larry"
Earlier this year I left a DW 9000 single pedal, (chain drive ha ha) at a backline (ugh) gig. I didn't notice this fact until a few weeks later. My garage was a mess, so I thought it was among the stuff in the garage when I noticed it missing. I'd find it later. I never called the establishment, because I thought it was too late by the time I was aware of it.
The gig was in Center City Philadelphia, so my hopes were low that people wouldn't take what wasn't theirs. I had a gig there again recently, and was hoping that my pedal would be there in the storage area. Which it wasn't. So now I'm using my formerly retired backup 5000 at gigs, and I use a 3000 as a backup now. This is the 4th time I've forgotten gear in 15 years, which is 4 times too much for me. Luckily all the 3 other times I got my gear back.
Not this time.
I just took what I needed separately to the gig, so I didn't go by my usual procedure, that's why I lost it, yea, that's the ticket.

Stupid! Stupid Stupid!
