Gary, guess we cross posted. Yes, I thought it was you. Just a passing comment on your part but made a lot of us take a new (if unconfortable) look at the effects of aging on all aspects of the business.
In fact, Mo introduced a couple of new aspects to it; that is, how and where and who you can market yourself to. AND, if you choose to work in a band, the possible difficulty of getting young guys to work with you (or their seeking YOU out). AND the age of the club crowd (relating). No suprise, also, that many of you mentioned the fatigue factor (stamina) and except for Diki

, the weight of the gear. I know that it cured my blood lust for a real B3 w/Leslies. Except for Dave and Capt. Russ (who apparently has some strange hold over his sons), can you imagine carrying around one of those (lovely) monsters. Nah, got to leave that to the guys that can afford roadies.
