In response to an article which indicates only kids under 13 like Al's music,
I thought I'd try a little poll to see the age range here, and, (just for the
heck of it, next poll over), the educational range.

Boy, do we know that's not true!

Aw Man, I have to click the 0-13 one. I'm 13 and a half, but most people say I look 15. Anyway, the most hardcore fans I've met besides me are 18 and over.

I recall a similar poll on AMW-A during the RWS tour 3 years ago. I was very pleased that the final result of the average age of the polled Al fans was 27 -- seriously!

still younger than Al

Hmm, el, I wonder if you'll ever be older...

I may be 18, but age has never really occured to me with my close personal Al friends here.

I know some are older and some are younger, but I know I don't mind at all.

It's always fun at Al shows to see the wide age difference of the audience.

Gee, I feel like I'm filling out one of those registration cards. What's next, number of kids under 18 in the household? Income level?

You could wait 6 months to answer. I'm not sure how practical an age poll is. Unless the poll lets you update answers? :dontgetit:

Well, it really wasn't intended to be intrusive, but there's another thread going in response to an article that said something to the effect that "Al
appeals to few people over the age of 13". (It's under the "Rise Up And
Defend Al", but it does contain spoilers.) I just didn't think that was a correct statement, so I wanted to gather some information for the people
in that thread who wanted to respond to the article. That's all.

Certainly, no one needs to participate if they don't want to, and I do apologize sincerely to anyone this offends.
