Tough one G. It is easily apparent to anyone who reads the site, that you are a headbanger at heart. That scores you bonus points with me, obviously, so I hope you find another band that can satisfy those requirements. Maybe they will keep it toned down enough to hear all the stuff and that, but keep it fast and loud!! Age is just a number. Your aren't old until you believe that you are old. Never believe that. I am a bit younger, but still am accused of never acting my age. I take that as a compliment!

Thanks for all the feedback, wife and I are getting out of Dodge tomorrow, heading down to Florida, I'm going to relax, not think about stuff till I return. although my wife's idea of relaxing is much different than mine, she will get a book and read on the beach, I'll most likely rent a bike and hit the trials.

All the best to you....I have gone through this myself as many of us have. Leave the age behind, unless you are actually physically having problems playing. Step back........then look forward again. Remember, this is what we do....;)
