How important is it to bring young guitarists to this forum?

So...ya know...it doesn't wither and die in a foul last breath of (fill in the blank).

First pre-requisite is that they have to have a finely tuned appreciation for “The Boomer Bend.”

In the grand scheme of things? Not very.

Is it important enough that you’ll do TikTok videos to get their attention and drive them here?

I dunno... My daughter is fairly excited to go home and play guitar when she gets out of school. She's 10.

We aren't young enough for you? Sure, we are as old as dirt but, intellectually we are quite young.

I guess it's difficult to say. Younger guitarists might keep it going but could change the mood of the place. It also depends on how long Mark wants to deal with the forum. He has a lot going on in his life.

I think you mean "immature".

The wise council of internet guitarists always needs new apprentices to study in the ways of MWGL wisdom

I think the far larger importance is getting young people to want to pursue creating truly organic music (meaning without using AI at all), ideally on physical instruments.

Wanting to learn and achieve a level ability that allows them to express themselves, musically and lyrically using their own minds, thoughts, & feelings.

If they find their way to communities like these or create their own, that would also be cool and good for continuing “real” music and art.

We just need to get them hooked on swapping pickups and start them on a life long search for the perfect overdrive.

Also, maybe we should switch Accordions, Accordions, Accordions! back to Guitars, Guitars, Guitars!.

What's a guitar?

I don’t think we should plan kidnapping and human trafficking out in the open. Take it to the politics subforum.

What if we try something edgy like, all nude all the time?

Feel free to start that trend

Clearly some of us are unaware of what the youngs currently think about edginess, problematic behaviors, the exploitative nature of gratuitous nudity, and age gaps.
