What's in your "ManCave"?

#21
I'm living the bachelor life in my one-bedroom apartment. So I guess have a man-partment.
However, I can foresee that ending soon as I join the ranks of you gentlemen. I have a ring for my girl. It's only a matter of time until all of my favorite things get shoved into one corner to make room. But I'm okay with it.

But, to answer the question, I have instruments, guns, tools, PC parts, records and movies scattered all over the place in my man-partment.
Someday I'd love to have a man-shed or garage for a little woodworking shop. And I'd be fine with just that... plus a corner.

My 'Man Cave' exists only in my mind... the proposed physical space allocated for this non-entity is currently occupied by Curious George, Elmo, who by the way will soon utter his last breath, when he accompanies me to the range... numerous Hot Wheel IWDs... Improvised Walking Deterrents... Mega Bloks... the list goes on...

... and seriously, I wouldn't have it any other way.

You (your child) owns a "Sing With Elmo" plush toy? Oh that thing was irritating. "Get out in that kitchen, and shake thos pots and pans! Get out..." If so, shoot it once for me. :)

My Mancave (the Basement), is divided into two seperate rooms. One side has a Dart Board, Amplifiers, PA system, Keyboards, Electronic Drums and a vast collection of Cleveland Browns stuff.
The other side consists of Airbrush equipment, paints and misc. collectables, as well as DVDs and VHS tapes

2 basses, 2 guitars, 2 amps, 2 drum kits (acoustic and electronic, sons), Plasma screen tv and a bit of furniture. I sound-proofed the room when I built it so I can be goofing around and not disturb Mrs. Corndog upstairs.

Its where I go to play and watch and get away. My kid is slowly taking over though, his kits take up some serious square footage.

When I bought my house last year, my main stipulation was that I find a place where I could have my own room. I ended up with 2 rooms in my basement. Happiest I've ever been. LoL
I've changed out a couple things since these photos were taken, but it's pretty close to this.

(Yes, that's The Devil Wears Prada on the tv. It's one of my favorite movies. LoL)

More of a Man-backline but my living room throws about 1000 watts around. Since live music has been proclaimed to be dead, I'm part of the problem with my DJ/KJ rig. There's more, of course.

In reality, this so-called pro-gear is cheaper than so-called pro-sumer equipment where their preamp (or speaker cables!) would be worth more than all of this junk but to the general public, it looks like I know what I'm doing when I show up and "ring the room".

I might know 100 tunes well on bass but I can play about 20,000 of them from the hard drive and then switch over to YouTube for requests. :) I mostly do benefits and work related festivals.

I used to have one of those when i still was living with the missus. Now my living room blends with the mancave thing over two rooms, featuring a small but very nice amp, five basses, a guitar, an e-drum kit, computer with 42" monitor, a soundsystem with active Neumann near field monitor cabs and lots of the usual stuff one expects in those places.
