That last 'healthy' comment really rings for me as well. It's amazing how 
versatile you become when you aren't distracted by a pile of gear and just 
listen and react. The simplicity is very appealing...

I recently acquired a funky old tube amp (Alamo 2570) after having done 
the direct-inject thing for years, and found myself ignoring a fairly new 
Lexicon PCM80 in favor of a pedal board and amp. It's been really fun just 
going out to play with that setup, although I'm probably going to put the 
EDP and PCM80 in a two space rack bag to take along sometimes as well.
