    Gigs is the most obvious place to meet fellow Metalheads. If you're old enough or when you become old enough you can frequent the Rock bars.

    Why limit yourself to just metalheads and rockers?

    The chat there here on the Rock & Metal forum is usually ticking along, post in there! You can chat about things with other rockers. What bands do you listen to? You play an instrument?

    I love thrash and groove metal. A lot of older stuff - Venom, Priest, Sabbath, early Metallica and Slayer. I play guitar but I'm not great at it.

    Not hugely into thrash myself, but I do like some Testament and Megadeth

    Well the main thing I would say is to enjoy yourself, so as long as you enjoy playing then you're sorted.

    Of course. Over time I'll get better naturally without trying, that's kinda how I've developed.

    Oh, that's a hard one. If I had to pick I'd say Dimebag Darrell. What about yours?

    I don't know anything at all about Japanese metal xD. I'm not really big into Japanese culture in general. It just gets on my nerves for some reason. :s

    Don't worry yourself with notions about that japanese carry on, Strict diet of thrash metal supplemented with some good punk and classic metal is what a young lad like yourself needs. Go easy on the groove stuff for now too

    Ah, some people say I'm a teensie bit obsessed with Japan, but honestly I think the best metal these days is coming from Japan, all different styles. For Thrash you might wanna give Outrage a listen to ;)
