I just remember Jeannie's waaaaay older'n me...

When all the bassist wanted adverts are for Death Metal, Screamo, Top 100 or Disney Punk.

What the hell is disney punk?

When you're older than your Dad was when he died.
You have no idea how much this haunts Me.

Understood. My dad was 53 years and 63 days old when he passed. I counted the days to when I would be that age. Of course, it came and went, but was just plain weird, brought on by none other than me................. sheesh, that was almost 14 years ago. I'll be 67 in June.

So true.
Makes me wish this also……

 

[LiptonJigglers]

What the hell is disney punk?

Green Day, Linkin Park, Blink 182, Bad Religion.... you get the picture..
They're commercially safe and socially acceptable, even the local vicar listens to them and they all look and sound like they just stepped off a Disney animated movie.

When one of my main concerns became, "Will the gig be done by 9pm?"

In days gone by, the gigs didn't START until 9pm.

Being retired and no reason to get up early, but still not wanting to go clubbing.
