First off, sorry we've been a bit tardy replying.
Anyway welcome to the forum. The idea, when you feel up to it, tells us a bit about yourself and maybe even stop by the chatroom at the appointed hours on Monday or Tuesday if you feel your typing is up to it.
Age wise, you are in good company but JoeB's fans and forum are a broad church and he appeals to all ages which speaks volumes for the music he plays, the way presents it and the relationship he has with his public. There is a lot of respect and it is two way. Thats very appealing in this day and age.
As you have seen him live already then presumably your jaw has been fixed back in place and you are no longer gibbering to friends and family. It's a fantastic thing that he has inspired you to play yourself and I would expect he'll get quite a kick out of reading that. If you're inspiring people then you are reaching them in a fundamental way which is just what music should do.
Check back in often. There are lots of threads and although not a big forum person myself, from what I have seen of them there isn't another one quite like this.
As a budding guitarist check out the gear thread. Even if you don't know what they are talking about, and I don't, its fantastic to read sometime. You'll find the guv'nor in there often as well. Its a Gearhead paradise.
Post often and make yourself at home.
Cheers
