Your not old my friend, You are like me, Just well preserved...................... :up: :ugh:

[runco]

38 years go by quickly when you are old!

[ArmyBrat61]

Keep talking Gents....you're giving me the Moody Blues.....

[dlmeadows]

Dang...you are old

[hipower]

Hey...that's insulting.

 

True and sad as well.

[Ted S.]

1976? Damn. I wasn't even a forethought.

[Lowpower]

'76? I had already done my stint and had a wife and two kids....

[Mike.357]

saw Zep in 76

[RC3]

Mental note, here are all the geezers :rofl:  

[Garufa]

Mental note, here are all the guys that know what good music is. :bow:

 

 

FTFY

[McGarrett]

My thinking exactly.

[RC3]

FTFY

Did I diss Led Zeppelin? NO. I love classic rock. I was making fun of all the old mustard around here. 1976 was many "mango" seasons past.   :panic:

 

And plus, 98% of the new rock sucks. And Metal went down the same spiral pit into damnation.  :rant:

Tool is the only real Metal.

[Ugly]

Tool does kick butt!

 

I envy you Zeppelin concert goers, they are the only band on the planet I would've done anything to see. I live with it by watching the Sound Remains the Same and How the West was won. Awesome footage and of course the jamming is absolutely second to none. 

 

You guys aren't old, just lucky!

[RC3]

Tool is the only real Metal.

Thats highly debatable. But unfortunately jazz and the blues have also gone down the crapper too now that I think about it.

Farsty young whippersnapper!

[RC3]

Farsty young whippersnapper!

Sure thing gramps!

[Grand Torino]

Old? I'm not old....just well aged....

[RC3]

Old? I'm not old....just well aged....

are you trying to sell steak or whiskey? Maybe wine? tequila could work as well. 

[TrickyNicky]

ROFLMAO @ "old mustard"! :rofl: :rofl:

As to music, I'm to eclectic to have an opinion on the validity of old vs new except to contradict RC3 by saying that jazz hasn't gone down the crapper. Its always sucked with few exceptions. I think it was Nigel Tufnel who said it best about jazz guitar:

"... you shouldn't be playing
music! Because what good are people who do that jazzy sort of stuff? It's all too low-volume. Have you noticed that? What are they trying to hide? What have they got to be embarrassed about? If you're a good player, you play loud so people can hear it-that's why we plug these things in. If you play an electric guitar — I don't care if it's a Gibson 175 or a Charlie Christian — turn the ####in' thing up!
To those people who do that 13th stuff I say, "By the time you count to 13, who cares? The song's over anyway. So let's play some serious rock and roll." It's all very impressive, I suppose, for some musicologists who play jazz and all that — let them have their way. But they must be afraid of something if they're not playing loud.
