You tell `em! I've got 9 years on you and mine are still working "too" well
also.

Keets:

Well I DON'T! I don't care when athletes retire, that doesn't mean their
hormones aren't working as well...just that their bodies have had a few
decades of abuse. What if they started at 25, would they still be retiring
at 30? And how old is Magic Johnson? He never seems to quit, but he's gotta
be in his 40s by now, huh?

Physical, yeah, hormonal, I don't think so. Actually if you take care of
yourself and don't go out on a field and hit other men as hard as you can
(or other nonsense like that), 25-50 is the male prime of life.

OK, so who's more of a wild man than me? All right, then. And I don't even
eat sunflower seeds.

> What does swing have to do with Rockabilly?  Swing is a jazz style, right?

Yes, but when you listen to Setzer's albums you can hear how similar the
music is. Try it and you'll see.

Scott P:

I think it's more like she wants to be what she was, and there's way too
much alcohol between. Last year our boys didn't embarrass us, did they?
Blues performers "look good" playing at any age. Maybe Pete is embarrassed
to emulate what he sees as a staged performance (by jumping and
windmilling), but he doesn't HAVE to do that.

Keets:

Sure about that? I mean, we know that fingernails and hair keeps growing
after one dies...

> For one think, I don't think Grace Slick has grown a lot.

Oh yes she has; she used to be quite thin.
