How old are you?

Seems like this placed is filled with children.
Music is like making love: either all or nothing. Isaac Stern

Life without music is unthinkable. Music without life is academic. That is why my contact with music is a total embrace.

17 years old; too old if you ask me. :(
That's the price you pay for being moderate in everything.  See, if I were you, my name would be Ilovepie.  But that's just me.

Yes, the site has a lot of teens.  Seems like part of the PianoStreet culture.

It makes sense -- Who else is going to use the internet a lot and have time to practice?

Then a few older people.  I believe there is one lady who was 70-something who posted.

I had my 28th birthday on Wednesday... getting old! But, never as old as the man in my life, he's 15 years older than me so in comparison I'll always be able to tease him for being old...

My god, this makes me feel ancient. I feel like I've walked into the wrong classroom and just realised that everyone's younger than me. Like those dreams where you go into school naked without realising (but slightly less traumatic).

Judging from what people actually write here, I'd say it's not this thread only, this site seems to be mostly teen-aged. Also, it seems more geared to people who are still learning than people who are playing, and since most of the members are learning seriously, that places them between 10 and 20, I'd say.

I'm 31, btw.

I'm 22, but I feel in many ways more advanced than most people my age, and in many other ways completely behind.

She looks no older than me.

Seems that *cream* I have been giving her has worked wonders  :-X

I could spend a while looking for the hidden meaning of that number, but I learnt a valuable lesson from a random episode of Prison Break, where like, Scofield awesomely recorded a hidden morse code message tapping on his thigh , knowing the FBI would spend time interpreting it, but it MEANT NOTHING and it was just to throw them off the scent, but like MAHONE figured this out immediately.

So yeah, I am Mahone
