Are you saying that being a talented musician is more worthwhile than sitting in your underpants and eating cereal straight out of the box?

I ain’t going to be playing the blues better than him no matter how old I am, music is one of those things which isn’t in my wheelhouse.

If I could make a career out of eating cereal in my underwear, you better believe I would.

I most certainly was not playing the blues as well as that kid when I was 21, but I would also surmise that he is not playing Gran Turismo on PS1 as well as I was when I was 21.

Your move, music nerd. (aimed at the kid, not Jcarr)

I think the worst thing I personally witnessed after Y2K ticked over was a date displayed on a website which said “January 1, 19100.”

Not guitar...but I was playing drums.

I mean not terribly well...but I was playing them in bars for little pay.

...aaaand I just realized in a little over a month, that’s half a lifetime ago.

At 21... I just bought my first GTO prior to my birthday, was working a full time govt job, and going to school full time. I think it was the year I took calculus, quantitative principals of chemical analysis, and physics in one semester.

Man, that’s some good music. Great groove, tasty guitar, and good voice.

I was puking from too many jello shots on my 21st. At 21 and one day I was probably doing a lousy Smoke on the Water riff on my acoustic guitar and dreaming of being Stevie Ray Vaughn. It was never to be.....
