How old are we TB'ers?

[flyinglakland1]

I'd be interested in seeing what the average age is on here. 19 for me. Playing for 7 years since that fateful day when the 7th grade jazz band needed a bass player.

Sorry if I offend anyone with these choices. haha

19. Started playing music about 2 years ago. I was just a bedroom player for the first 6 months, then stopped completely for about a year, and here I am now actually studying the instrument, playing in an actual band, learning something new about music everyday!
