The closest members to me are probably two hours away minimum.

I could definitely put myself in your shoes theoretically.

So... you hanging out with yourself is really uncomfortable.

I feel like it would be awkward to meet up with members who are 20+ years older than me...

you'd think that, but it really isn't. I met up with a load of people from an online game (yeah I'm a nerd, shoot me :P) in july 2009. We rented a lodge in the UK for a week and just congregated there. Average age was about 30 or so, but ranged from 20 to 40+, and everyone got along great. Age is only a socially perceived barrier. yeah there's a difference in the amount of experiences you've had, and that does show, but so long as you're yourself, if you get along on the forums, you'll get along in RL, that's what I found.

Hell, I ended up in a long term relationship with one of the 30yo's as a result of that trip, and some of my best friends now were people who were there.

Well age can be a factor because you generally don't share the same interests. But if its centered around a common interest age shouldn't matter.

I don't know how MB would work.

Well we all have, you know, music in common :P and considering the large amount of offtopic discussion that goes on on this board, I'm fairly sure pretty much every regular knows who the people they have more in common with are.
