Is that why you play?For the money?Or if you don't play,would money be your primary reason for playing?I sure hope not!
So much of that.
If being old and still wanting to rock and roll makes you a misfit,then,heck,that's what it was all about in the first place!!Doing what,according to some folk,shouldn't be done.Like Elvis,I gather,doing that hip gyrating thing,was soooo shocking,they used to show him from belly-button up!
So much of that.
John Lee Hooker,I read in a magazine,said that "You gotta hang in there."Just keep going.People don't cease to be people when they age.Which is why I will be having sex with my wife until I die.Even if I get to 100.The same thing that makes you want to play in your 20's is the same thing that will make you want to play in your sixties,save physical impairment or something like an accident and such(Read Jason Becker.Btw,I've never heard him,but I gather he was awesome).
Les Paul(the person,not the guitar)in a guitar book I got,(and this guy is old,he got his first guitar in 1927.Not 72.No.1927-how old was your grandma in 27?Mine was one.Notice how 27 doesn't even strike you as a year,like,say,97??)said that as long as you got it(don't ask me what)in you,and your audience loves what you do,you'll want to get out there.
Need I say more?
P.S:Old age sex.I hope there are no kids reading this.If,Mr. Mod,you find this inappropriate,then by all means delete it.Now,I read somewhere that when a woman reaches menopause,the walls of her vagina thin out abit,which makes it tighter!!Get my drift?
