I have a couple of pro/working level neighbors that occasionally visit.

They get a big kick out of the so called "audiophile" stuff I show them and explain what it supposed to do. I get rhythm pointers from the drummer and bassist. I'm a lifelong guitar wanker. Can't hold a groove to save my life! 

They appreciate our weird endeavor, but probably think it's ridiculous.

Musicians are makers, active participants in this endeavor, we are passive participants, totally different objectives.

I'd also assume with so much time spent creating and performing, spare time is used for other activities.
