You guys are making me feel depressed.
I'm 51 and never want to stop gigging, is this my fate also?
REDD, don't get depressed. . at 57 I'm still playing the music of my choice "ROCK" to audiences typically in their 20's and 30's. When we play for people in their 40's and 50's and 60's we might be 'too loud' or they want to hear more classic-rock instead of newer stuff. That's the only depressing part. . . My ears aren't what they were, and also I get a bit sore the day or 2 after from lugging the PA gear ,etc. . Other than that it's still fun as can be. As for mid-60's like Brad was saying, yea I plan on being done with this too, or at least start being in a 'blues or r&b" as I'm not good enough for jazz/classical! Enjoy it while you can! Eric
