Hey, all!


 


I'm originally from Massachusetts but transplanted to Florida back in 2011. 


 


I am 50 years old and wanted to play guitar since I was about 12. It was more a pipe dream back then, and as a kid, I prioritized other things. At 49, December before last, I picked up a horrible guitar off of Amazon, but it was enough to get me hooked. After that I bought a few more, gave one away, and traded one in. I currently sit with two of them and I'm enjoying the hell out of my journey! 


 


Actually, the aspect of learning guitar that I have found most challenging is the isolation. The people around me are interested in listening to music, but not in how it's created. I don't have any friends that play instruments either. This does not in any way make me want to stop playing, but it does make me feel a little bit lonely. It would be great to be able to converse about what I'm learning and commiserate with those who are. I probably should have thought of hitting these forums quite a while ago. 


 


As far as other interests, I play table top RPGs, such as Dungeons & Dragons and similar games. I'm also into video games on both the PS and PC. 


Anyone else out there in a similar situation?
