By the census of gender in these nursing homes I play - I don't have to worry about my knees - I'll be gone like the rest of the men

Nah, Greg. You're NOT! Some people just have STRONGER legs than others. I sit when playing but I sure make use of my legs during the rest of the day.

I'll stand when I can, and sit when I must

I stand for the most part during the praise and worship, but for slower songs where I'm using sustain pedal, it puts all the weight on my left leg and foot and they start hurting, so i find that I can switch and sustain with my left foot....

It's a little awkward but works... then if there are other things going on I have a high stool that adjusts with a pnuematic lift so I can sit and still see what is going on. (I use an apex, so I can't go too low.)

Seems to work fine.

I sit high so it's easy to stand when I want - usually for the up tempo songs - the kb is set at a height so that if I sit or stand it is comfortable ...

I always stand. It's an energy thing. Last year I had a 7 hour gig and took along a stool, which would allow me to sit high for part of the time... never used it. Just can't stand standing (ooops) while performing.
