I was just curious as to how old people were when they started to listen to Avril. I was about 16. I just added a poll - got the idea from Greeneyedsouls reply! Thanks! I have liked her since Let Go

I was 54 when I became a fan. The first time I saw her was on Saturday Night Live, April 14, 2007. She performed 'Girlfriend' and 'I Can Do Better' and I liked her right away. I did a search of the TV schedule and within a couple of days, I watched and recorded a half hours worth of older videos and a half hour show where she did songs from TBDT. I liked it so much, I went out and bought the album. Within a few days, I found her web site and listened to her first two albums. Went back to the store and bought her first two as well. So, within a week, I went from not knowing who she was to owning three of her albums and became a member of her forum. The next year, I joined bandaids when her web site went down for about a week. I have been pleasantly surprised that an old fart like me has been fairly well tolerated within her online community. I've had a lot of fun and made more friends than enemies.

Let Go I was 6 I think. But I didn't start properly following her until TBDT (as in watching interviews and seeing her live).

I started listening to her regularly around 2003 (when IWY was released as single), and when UMS was released in 2004 I became a full-on fan. I was 20-21 years old

I became a true fan during the GL era. It was a few months before the album was released and right after the WTH video was released; so basically January 2011. I was 14 at the time. I was always aware of Avril's music such as her bigger hits (Complicated, Sk8er Boi, My Happy Ending, and Girlfriend), but it wasn't until GL that I got involved with her music, bought albums, and basically fell in love with her. I remember when I stumbled upon the WTH video. I was watching Avril music videos on youtube and literally became obsessed with listening to the multi-lingual versions of Girlfriend. I then discovered that she had a new single and album coming out soon. Excited about listening to her old singles and upcoming album, I bought physical copies of LG, UMS, and TBDT and listened to them. I can honestly say that I instantly loved each album. EDIT: I'm jealous of the fans who became fans earlier on in Avril's career than I did. I feel like I missed out, lol. I think I've spent countless hours doing anything and everything Avril-related to make up for the lost time though!
