Jamiroquai and are just discovering the wonderful world of acid jazz?'

OK, so I know we get postings from people all over the world

Mostly blokes I think, but lots of vocal AJ-ettes out there

Postings regularly from black, white, brown, yellow, (blue?!)

But I was chuckling to myself reading the interview with Fatboy, Oakenfold
and Tongy in latest issue of Muzik: they were asked should there be a
statutory age limit for DJs. Norman - definitely not or else he'd have had
to hang up his headphones a few years ago. Tong (I think) said you'd better
ask Junior and Frankie Knuckles (50 and 46 respectively).

So I'm intrigued to know what kind of age range we have out there. Do we
have some elder statesmen and -women who have somehow arrived here on some
strange journey that began with late 70s soul weekenders? And what of the
young'uns - are there some high schoolers out there who's first record was
Jamiroquai and are just discovering the wonderful world of acid jazz?

Don't be shy - what's your age??!!
