Hey Tim,

You forgot number three..... Attracting members of the opposite sex (or
the same sex if you are that way inclined)

A guitarist friend of mine likes to quote a musician who said there are
three things that motivate us to play (in no particular order): 1)
having fun, 2) advancing ourselves musically, and 3) making money.  A
gig of any type -- studio, live performance, etc. -- should satisfy two
of the three or it's not worth it.  In other words, if you're
*just* having fun, or *just* making money, it's not worth it.  

Lately, I've had to satisfy myself with 1) and 2).  There's no money in
live music at my level.
