How old is TalkBass?
- Thread starter yakmastermax

Back on this 2 year old thread, I calculated an average age of ~38.

I'm 58, but "Reagan-Bush '84" does not represent me. No way.
Raise your hand if the Barney Miller bass line is forever stuck in your head and you have always wanted to play it but never got around to it... yet. Yeah I'm 51. Guess I better decide soon if I want to learn it!
Wow more than 50% of TB is older than 41. That is pretty cool for me considering the nature of a forum and my perception that most are populated by younger kids.
I'm 51 and I feel the same way. Also, the late President's name isn't even spelled correctly. Two reasons I cannot in good conscience vote in this poll.
"41-50 "when do the kids move out?"
Heh, that's pretty funny since the thought about the kids soon being away to college really just dawned on me last year.
I love them dearly, but it's been a long time since we've been just two.

Me either. It would be "Trudeau-Turner '84" but that still doesn't represent me.
Why wouldn't we populate it? We invented the web.
Now Twitter and the like...not so much.
It's pretty obvious when some of these folks start talking about their music taste, and what kind of covers bands they are in.
TB! Welcome to the old folks home.
As a young punk I take a lot of pride being associated with all you more "mature" guys, even if that is only via this forum.
I'd venture to say that TB is one of the largest and oldest musical instrument forums out there. Most of the guitar forums are certainly younger and other instruments simply don't have the gear aspect to them that helps keep the forum active.

I'm about to enter my 46th trip around the sun in a few weeks, but much of the time I feel 55+. Fortunately, I'm always told I look about 30, but I think it may be because I stopped maturing around 22 
So yea, I had a hard time choosing an answer!

I seems like when I first joined there were a lot of young folks here (14-20 yo).
Nothing like a outspoken 15 year old for some good entertainment.

i'll raise my hand, but put my self in the category of those in our age group who GOT SICK OF PLAYING it for all of the non-bass playing yokels. "Dude, can you play the Barney Miller song?" Ugh...
