i always hear that the younger you are when you start or learn anything, the better you are at it. id say 11 is a great age to pick up an instrument. i wish my parents would have made me take piano lessons when i was younger. thats one instrument that i watch poeple play and immediately have an annurism. to have so much coordination in your fingers...wow.

i dont consider 47 old. when i was 16 i played with this guy that was 75. the only song that we collectively knew was "stand by me". hehe. after we played it like 5 times then we just made stuff up. hehe. 75 is old i guess is my point. :wink:
