Just goes to show the enduring quality of some of the old-school bands!
I took the Mrs to see Paul on his 2017 tour. Wasn't sure how many more chances we would have to finally see him. I splurged for a VIP package. Ended up with 5th center seats, right in front of Paul. That is easily the most I have ever spent on concert tickets, but well worth it. Three plus hours of great music, with no break! Pretty good for a guy in his mid 70s (at that time).However, my daughter is ordering tickets, and also saw Paul McCartney on his last tour.

In LA the second warm up band was Guns N' Roses. Great show, when Mick still had it, though we went the night before Clapton joined them.As for the Stones, I saw them on the Steel Wheels tour in '89 (Living Colour opened)
I hear you loud and clear on that one. I turned 70 this year. The thought of now being 70 doesn't bother me one bit. But I get a moment of pause when I think how fast 70 years went by. But I'm feeling pretty good and doing my best to stay in shape.In general, you know you're getting old when you look in the mirror, wonder what the hell happened, and say to yourself, "That happened too fast."

You also know when you're getting older when you notice how much hair you've lost and it's not bothering you one bit!
I have some great stories too. If I could remember them!I'm pushing 69 .. but it's all the injuries ( 32 broken bones) that make me feel ancient in the morning especially .. I had some severe GI issues ( resulting in temporary acute kidney failure) so it's more than just age .. it's the miles.
Kind of like the case queen vs the beater that's seen a thousand gigs .. I ain't much to look at , but I have GREAT stories !
I ain't even as good once as I ever was .. as the song goes .. but I"m still playing live every week, so damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead!
