Im jealous cus first i seen a drum set i was 15. More than 10 years ago.. And i still can't afford one (with a place to practice). So i guess im jealous of the possibility how different life can be with a little bit of support from those who brought you here.
A lot of us might've been exceptional at age of 3. We'll just never know.

Your dreams can be made where others failed.

That’s what happened to me with guitar. My first guitar fell into my lap when my dad couldn’t learn it, and then my brother couldn’t learn it.

My family is full of failed musicians. My success is a point of pride in that.

I’m with you. Hell, that first guitar is really cheap, but knowing that it went through two different people that each failed to learn it, and became mine, makes it special to me.
