You Know You're To Old To PLay Gigs When:
<p><strong>YOU KNOW YOU'RE TOO OLD TO PLAY GIGS WHEN:</strong> <br /> <strong><br /> </strong><strong>* It becomes more important to find a place on stage for your fan than your amp.<br /> </strong><strong>* Your gig clothes make you look like George Burns out for a round of golf.<br /> </strong><strong>* All your fans leave by 9:30 p..m.<br /> </strong><strong>* All you want from groupies is a foot massage and back rub.<br /> </strong><strong>* You love taking the elevator because you can sing along with most of your set-list.<br /> </strong><strong>* Instead of a fifth member, your band wants to spring for a roadie.<br /> </strong><strong>* You lost the directions to the gig.<br /> </strong><strong>* You need your glasses to see the amp settings.<br /> </strong><strong>* You've thrown out your back jumping off the stage.<br /> </strong><strong>* You feel like hell before the gig even starts.<br /> </strong><strong>* The waitress is your daughter!<br /> </strong><strong>* You stop the set because your ibuprofen fell behind the speakers.<br /> </strong><strong>* Most of your crowd just sways in their seats.<br /> </strong><strong>* You find your drink tokens from last month's gig in your guitar case.<br /> </strong><strong>* You refuse to play without earplugs.<br /> </strong><strong>* You ask the club owner if you can start at 8:30 instead of 9:30.<br /> </strong><strong>* You check the TV schedule before booking a gig.<br /> </strong><strong>* Your gig stool has a back.<br /> </strong><strong>* You're related to at least one member in the band.<br /> </strong><strong>* You don't let anyone sit in.<br /> </strong><strong>* You need a nap before the gig..<br /> </strong><strong>* After the third set, you bug the club owner to let you quit early.<br /> </strong><strong>* During the breaks, you now go to the van to lie down.<br /> </strong><strong>* You prefer a music stand with a light<br /> </strong><strong>* You don't recover until Tuesday afternoon.<br /> </strong><strong>* You hope the host's speech lasts forever.<br /> </strong><strong>* You buy amps considering their weight and not their tone or "cool" factor.<br /> </strong><strong>* You can remember seven different club names for the same location.<br /> </strong><strong>* You have a hazy memory of the days when you could work 10 gigs in 7 days and could physically do it!<br /> </strong><strong>* Your date couldn't make it because she couldn't find a babysitter for the grandkids.<br /> </strong><strong>* The set list has to be in 20 point type.<br /> </strong><strong>* Your drug of choice is now coffee.<br /> </strong><strong>* It seems impossible to find stage shoes with decent arch support.<br /> </strong><strong>* You fart on stage and don't laugh</strong></p> <p> </p>

Dazed, a few of these? I'm up to 14 of them
But my 4.5 lb Crate Powerblock is 150 watts! It is "cool", really! Isn't it. Where's the buffet?
