Answer 2

That's where I'm from! But I do agree, being a teenager lots of the local bands are late teens to early 20's.

If I'm honest, I think it'll be wuite hard for you to actually find a band [but you know that already.

I know it's a bit iffy, but lots of bands these days are getting myspaces and facebooks. If you want, create one of them, add a few friends and look around in groups [on facebook]. That's probably not the best idea though.

If I'm honest, if you can't find a band, you can either create one, join a few of those "tribute bands" and, I personally think this is a great idea, why not try drum tuition? In schools etc, or advertise in your local newspaper.
