Yeah, my parents said that too - 25 years ago. Sure, rock&roll was pretty simple then, but I was only 9 years old. Rock grew up as I did. Not only do I still love it, so does my wife who is now 44 (and NOT reading over my shoulder as I publish her age to the four corners of the universe!) She remembers some of the things that were just a little before me - hearing four and five great groups at the Fillmore or the Avalon for a mere pittance... You can't outgrow rock and roll, but if you happen to live in the wrong part of the country you can get tired of trying to find good concerts. We're well situated, so all is well with us. Remember: You don't stop playing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop playing. -- Relax - don't worry - have a homebrew. {hao,ucbvax,allegra}!nbires!rcd
