I've gotten the impression that I'm one of the younger members, when compared to the most active posters...and I'm no spring chicken (at 46).




46 uh? No spring chicken, duh. Well enjoy it Sparky as you are just approaching the crest of the hill, so very soon it will be ALL OVER! In a couple of years you will have a prostate the size of a small water melon, get up to go to the bathroom at least 5 times per night . . . then there are those times you will forget to get up to go to the bathroom. I.e., you'll go 5 times but only get up 4 times, get the picture sonny?

Just kidding Joe, as like many other seniors here on the forum I am enjoying life (just turned 70) as much or maybe even more than I did when I was in my twenty's. Playing nearly 100 gigs a year and still have a few groupies. However I must admit the caliber of groupie has changed quite a bit from back then. In fact we don't rate them on a 1 – 10 scale anymore we use life expectancy instead.

PS: On a more serious note, back when I was a teenager I could only dream of getting the musical advice that can be attained on this forum (FREE) on a daily basis from the so called old timer membership. God bless them all for their availability and willingness to help no matter how complex or mundane the task.

Happy New Year!
