TURNING 50 IN NOVEMBER! AAAAHHHHGGGG!!!!

I'm approaching the 6-Oh and find myself playing better.
I listen and put the big dawg bass line where it is more effective.
More patient with myself in developing new skills (reading, jazz soloing).
It ain't much fun limping off stage after 5 sets, but it feels great while you're up there.

Thanks! Figured out the "effectiveness" of my playing. Just not looking forward to the "limping" afterwards...

Bound to happen sooner than later with the arthritis.
