discreet Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) May we ask why? Isn't it possible to look at last year's poll and add a year onto the results? Edited January 29, 2016 by discreet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I was 50 & 51 in January. I need a multiple choice answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmo Valdemar Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1454077487' post='2966211'] May we ask why? Isn't it possible to look at last year's poll and add a year onto the results? [/quote] That would work assuming nobody has left or joined since. We may have had a sudden rush of 85 year old bassists joing our ranks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discreet Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 The result will be skewed anyway - younger members are much more likely to vote because 1) They aren't as bitter or cynical as older members, 2) They have more energy and are less likely to be in the toilet, and 3) Ah, f*** it.

RhysP Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I notice Blue hasn't said how old he is in any of the "how old are you?" threads, which is quite ironic seeing as he mentions it in pretty much every other one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Haha! I do know also what age he started gigging too. It's making me feel a bit uneasy all this age stuff and with a good few famous people dying recently. I'm pretty sure ten years ago I was immortal. In all seriousness I am scared of growing old. And I'm honestly worried about the future, it's getting me down more than a bit and it's playing on my mind a lot of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
