Old enough that I don't remember if I posted on this previously? If I did, now I'm 70. In military terms, I'm short.

I'm turning 64 in July. Been playing bass since I was 15, but started steel about 40. When I told a musician friend I started playing steel, he asked me my age and said "you'll never make it". He may have been right. Hey, wait, did I tell you that already?
