As I have not achieved to obtain either, I can wholeheartedly agree with 
you :).

Looping to me is slowly turning into my life. Without looping, my music 
as I envisage it would simply not exist. From the very first day I 
purchased my DL4, I was hooked - to be able to play my music, without 
having egotistical guitarists, alchoholic bass players and other 
nefarious entities from the musical world to contend with was just sheer 
heaven!!!

I have not actually played with anyone else,  except a few rare jams or 
sitting in at concerts for about 2 years.... I love it :)

Live looping is geeky. It is also very very personal, and is probably 
that only way that musicians can really tap into their musical 
subconcious. It is the key to improvising, maybe even a way to find the 
key to music itself... I dont know.

I'm rambling. I'll shut up now :) I had a point to say, but I forgot 
what it was.
