Is 17/18 too old to start piano?
Favourite answer:No it's not too old. You are 17, not 70. And even 70 isn't too old. Something you have going for you is that you WANT to learn to play and many kids were taught whether they were interested or not. It does take time to learn but at 17 you have a while lifetime ahead to learn. My brother started piano lessons at 40. My father started when.he was 65. Both became pretty good. I started guitar at 50. No one is ever too old to start any type of music lessons.
As for starting, there are websites, YouTube videos, and more that cover the simple stuff. There are phone apps that turn your smartphone into a piano keyboard so you can learn and practice some simple things before spending a lot of money. A piano key is very different from a touchscreen but the theory of music isn't. Start with the ABC's of the white keys and the sharps and flats of the black keys. Learn the basics of whole, half and quarter notes. Then read up and learn about scales. When lockdowns are over find a teacher and you will already know the basic stuff.

How do I build a vinyl collection without support from my parents? ?
I absolutely love vinyl records. I've loved any and all things vintage for as long as I can remember and with the recent resurgence of vinyl now is the perfect time to begin collecting. That said, I know my parents don't support me and my love of collecting vintage-esque things. How do I build my collection? I look to collect anything from 20-30s artists like Ruth Etting to modern day punk rock like Falling In Reverse.

Why are time signatures so fxcking confusing?
My music teacher has notified me of the fact that the reason I don't lesrn as well is because I'm going too fast. I'm going back to perfect what is necessary and I'm starting with time signatures. 4/4 is understandable but what about 17/7 or 15/9?
