I started really early (primary school) but unfortunately never put in the effort to be really good. I remember being amazed at one of my high school's school gathering there was this student who was playing something amazing on the classical guitar, he was well-known at school as being very proficient and a guitar-lover, man, I should've asked him to take me under his wing, maybe my path would've been different.
I really admire some ppl I met in university, they were actually studying for a music degree. To live in the arts as a living, that is impressive.
Flirted w the idea of starting a band but my friends (and I) were pretty lame and just couldn't get started. It was during the 80s New Wave period so the guitar took a backseat anyway.
I'm actually playing much more recently; I only play along to some videos/music or by myself though. I like singing and playing the guitar, even though I'm not really that good, it's fun to discover a song and find out the chords and play it, it's some minor level of achievement/satisfaction.
