For me:

1972 

You are not worthy.

 

 

 

 

2022

No, still not worthy.

No.

Because I only started playing in my thirties, I'm on the fast track/crash course.  Unless I'm still playing in my eighties, then I'll know the crash course didn't work

No, but the one labelled a 3rd is actually pointing to a flat 7th.

 

In slightly less than 50 years I've learnt to draw straight lines and put my fingers behind the fret though.

Same here, but more so in 1970. Three chords, write some songs, get mates to learn another guitar, and a bass, and pray for a mate daft enough to buy some drums that he can only play at band practice cos they are far too loud to play at home. Now? , I have 3 basses, 3 guitars, two amps and cabs, a drum kit and an E kit. Finding people to play with is considerably harder.

What are these chord things you mention, my Bass has just 4 strings.

I only started playing just before my 60th.... In 1972 I could read music...

[Dr.Dave]

1971   -   I can do that.

1977  - told you I could do that.

1978  - this looks like a right toilet full of scrota but it's a start and they're paying me half a weeks wage.

2022  - how come I'm in the same toilet full of scrota for a tenth of a weeks wage ??

Dunno, I'll let you know next year. 😋

[Dan Dare]

50 years ago, it was all fields round here.

[miles'tone]

1972 - I was born.

 

 

2022 - At the age of 50 I finally realise that I only really need one good bass. 

 

I feel born again!

Damn I though this was going to be a pic of Jack on stage in '72..... 

 

Come on Jack, I think we need the photographic evidence

If you're not living in the vehicle then things are going great, if you are living in the vehicle then I recommend moving 1 of those to a roof box for bit more sleeping space.

Don't be fooled my by sister's sheet music ... I was banging out honky-tonk blues.
