Well, I believe the standard for what is called a "Master Musician" is to have played 10,000 hours of music in their life. So at 30 minutes every single day (which is admittedly more than most), you should be there in just over 54 years. But don't despair. It's just a silly number and a relative standard.

You'll be ready when you're ready. I know that sounds like a loaded statement, but if you really want to join a band, or start your own, you'll do it.

It also depends on what music you're trying to play. ???
