Good news here mate. The people who best understand you will likely be your peers. You could learn a lot from this.
Spend a good bit of time listening mate. Offer what idea's you can of course, but be open to new ones too.



+100 times over.
man loads of opportunity here for you bro.
you get to play in front of others.
get to play with folks better than you.
get to play with folks not as good as you. (and if you think those not as good cant teach you think again)
you will get music training.
a couple yrs to practice sight reading and get it down like reading a book.
you will get to play different styles of music.
free music lessons.
and the chics will dig you early on before you hit the bar gigs.
(they will already know who you are) :wink: i mean..... if your in it for the chic's perk too that is. everybody knows its the flute players that get the most women anyways. :lol:

Excellent and the formal training will pay off for you down the road. I've seen a lot of "wish I'd kept up with formal training" posts (and I was one) here. Combine that with jamming (peers and those a bit above you) and you have all the bases covered. You'll be in pretty constant demand a few years from now and well earned!

Riley, as the youthful, incredibly hip, colourfully-garbed denizens of the city of Chicago state upon such occasions of profound joy, their spontaneous enthusiasm expressed in flourishing gestures and elaborate hand choreography,

...YOU GO, MAN!

Ah Youth!
I've been getting up at 5AM to be at work by 6AM for longer than you've been alive!
The best thing is that at your age, you can still stay up till 1AM and get away with it!
Not so much at my age...the candle is much shorter these days. :lol:

Have fun!!!
