Dave Letterman spoke to me for sure with this Top 10 List of when you know you are a musician that is getting older:
The Top Ten ways a musician knows he's getting older...
#10) It becomes more important to find a place on stage for your fan than for your amp
#9) You have to stop the song because your ibuprofen fell behind the speaker
#8) All your fans have to leave by 9:30
#7) You check the tv schedule before booking a gig
#6) You need a nap before, during and after the gig
#5) The only Rolling Stones you care about are in your gallbladder
#4) You start listing your truss as a business expense
#3) The only white powder you have is on your feet
#2) You actually ask the guitar player to turn up
And The Number One... You don't recover from a Saturday night gig until Tuesday. -

Haha. Good one. As if the trombones could possibly be ahead of us on anything.
Last night during Band practice, the director said to the trumpet section, "can you be louder on that part?" Of course, I said. We can ALWAYS be louder!
I felt comfortable speaking for the group. I was the fastest to answer, too. Maybe that was it. -

Well, then, I hate Spam and I fart in our general direction! -

This is the sound enhancing mute I will try to make. Just a rough conceptual sketch right now. -

This beats hands down any of those "no pressure" videos with trumpets hanging from strings - and you get to drink the beer at the end.
Prost!! -
It took me almost an entire minute to get the joke about "Mac" the knife.
But I did turn 63 last month,
and the brain is always the second thing to go... -
@moshe I took a moment to get it too - a few seconds, but then again, I'm only 62

What would I do if I won a million dollars?
Continue to play gigs until the money ran out. -

Well, I’m 67 and I don’t know what anyone is talking about....just kidding. I got it as soon as I saw it. Maybe it’s better to be a little older. I remember when the song was playing on the radio! -
@BigDub
At 70, I’m with BigDub... -
