I'm in NYC for most of the forseeable future.  I'm starting to get to be an alright drummer, I can play basic bass (bass-ic?), and I'm pretty alright at guitar.

I live in SoHo (lower Manhattan), I just play it all in my bedroom.  I just have an electric drum kit in my room, if friends wanna come jam we use an old Marshall practice amp (MG15FX) with a decent clean channel.  I left most of my heavy-duty stuff in Colorado (I go to school there but I'm taking time off), so all I've got as far as guitar gear goes is a guitar and a cable.  I don't play with any bands or anything as of now, but you can find a lot of studios and stuff on craigslist and facebook.  If you wanna make some money off your practice, go into a subway station with one of these (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/amplifiers-effects/yamaha-thr10-modeling-combo-amp) and just play around for a bit.  Change songs each time a train comes, if people give you cash, empty the cougher every few trains - prevents people from stealing it.
