I will have to send you a tee shirt I have that says "Old Dudes Rock Harder". I always thought that folks who played jazz or other styles made better rock and show drummers. It has something to do with the feel, especially with shuffles. By the way, I will be 68 the day after Christmas.
My wife just found me a nice tee shirt with "Never underestimate an Old Man with a drum set"
I turned 67 last week.
