Hey Fellow Oldtimers -
I was lucky enough to start playing bass in the heyday of Rock'N Roll -- I joined a band in 1965 & added guitar playing a few years later( & piano recently). I'm also lucky to own a large array of equipment. 25 years of concrete work & crashing everything that can be crashed has me scheduling my 25th surgery. I recently had to have my left ulnar nerve fixed to be able to keep playing(100% success). I'm still trying to play faster w/finger picking & w/a thumb pick for speed. I NEVER question my abilities @ my age(62) or I figure it's time to quit. The music has kept me sane(mostly) & I'll never quit.
Thanks -- JB
