I'm 34, got into metal since 1982, an uncle lent me Iron Maiden's Killers, and I discovered prog metal until 2001, with dream theater, then the same year Symphony X's V came to my hands and oh my God.... I just have no words... the sig speaks for itself

its good to see young young people like you listening to symph x, it must be hard for you in middle school when your surrounded by crap music.
btw do yourself a favor and if a kid at your school bashes symph x because their not limp bizkit....................put them in the iron maiden and metalize them, progize them too if you have time left.

Oh, it gets better. It seems only yesterday I turned 25. I can hardly believe I'm going to be 36 this year. I'm the youngest in my family, too...

i'm 43... and been a metalhead since waaaaaaaaay back when... before metal in reference to a style of music was even invented...
24, almost 25. Have only known Sym-X for a month now, I'm a newbie but already hopelessly hooked. I never got into metal until August of this year when someone introduced me to Nightwish... now I've heard and become a fan of NW, Sonata Arctica, Evergrey, Sym X, and Stratovarius. More bands to come obviously, but I need time to explore and absorb those first.
As for musicianship I want to learn to play electric bass (though some have said it's hard for a girl) but cannot afford it now and probably won't be able to for a couple years... as I'm spending a quarter of my meager student's income on voice lessons. Working towards opera, and I would kill to sing for a metal group.
...ok, I'm done.

35, going on 25! 
Been "doing" rock music since 1985, and am a big fan of Prog rock from DT, etc.
My 16 yo son got turned on to Joe Satriani, Neal Schon, and Gary Moore by age 14, and through his friends, learnt of Queensrÿche, and was gobsmacked to learn his "old man" knew and liked them also.
Through him and his friends, I've learnt of Symphony X, Shadow Gallery, Nightwish.
Through good ol' forums like this and DT's, as well as Amazon and P2P Apps, I've learnt of the likes of Flaw, Evergrey, Frameshift, Sevendust, IQ, Illusion Suite, Jon Fazzaro, Mynd Ovr Matter, Rhapsody, Scars Of Life, and others.
I'm sure there are others still to learn about. AllOfmp3 seems to be an excellent site to learn of more doing something progressive with rock/metal music.

I'm 18 years and 4 days old.
I've been listening to Symphony X since I was 16, they got me into prog-metal. I liked prog & metal separatedly since I was 15 and 14 respectively.
