Thing is, I'd really need to be able to find a bassist there.
Actually, I'm told they do have Episcopalians out that way, though they are often of a different tribe...

Your method of persuasion is equal parts crushingly depressing and emphatically compelling. Either way, it's effective!

I'm leading the way so you better keep up I need someone to get me through the gates and wifey probably won't make the trip
Lol, like as not, I'll be right there with you at the gates, knocking and begging...

Never too late. Do your thing.
Werd. But, to be fair, you're an amazing guitarist and a very, very talented musician. So you've got that going for you...

I'm 58, play guitar in an 80's hardcore punk band and bass in a rock band.
Like Yogi Berra once said, "It ain't over till it's over".... qft
It also helps that, I act like I'm 11.


Of course, Yogi also said "If you come to a fork in the road, take it," and "If folks don't want to come out to the ball park, there's nothing you can do to stop them."

But I think you've nailed it ~ my inner 11 year old has been rather neglected for these past few years...
