I think at some point something shifts in our brains and we have some sort of epiphany or change of thought in our life, not always musically related...you know, the same thing that makes that "bad boy" become a born again christian and etc. or you are stuck on that algebra problem and figure it out, then all of a sudden yr on to calculus the next week...
something snaps in our brains...
I always wanted to play music when I was a kid, wanted to play drums, tried my friends, and it was remeniscant of Steve Martin trying to 'snap' in The Jerk.
Then I tried to play his guitar and failed miserabley, stayed a fan of music, and by accident when I was 15 picked up a guitar that my dad was helping a friend sell on ebay and I jsut started playing it and it made sense...
something snapped in my brain...and that plus will...well now I can play every instrument I come across...and besides piano (im just ok at that) I play them all at the same skill level...
