Hello..........I'm 43..... started playing trumpet in 3rd grade.......became first chair in "jazz band" thru highschool. Always had a large console organ at home growing up. Never had lessons, but learned to play pretty good by ear. I remember my first "synthesizer" in the late 70's......something radio shack sold..... had all kinds of knobs and sliders and mono only! Wish I still had it..........
Now I love to sequence via computer.......so much easier than the punch in machines from the 80's. Easy to get instant gratification too. Thanks for asking!

Leon ..... you're just getting to MIDDLE age ... I've got you by 10 years, and there are players on this board who call ME 'kid' .... started with accordion lessons at 13 ... played first gig at about 15 ... still gigging ... don't do any 'computer' music ... play an arranger and that's fine for me....
... as Charlie Chaplin said "Just keep warm!!"
