Hi Guys             Glad I'm in good company I'm still lugging gear around at 62 not the Hammond and Leslie anymore would love to but settled for a Vk7 through a Fender sfx 200  a Korg Triton and a Gem rpx piano module that's as much as i could cut down on  gear though the work isn't as it was here in the UK ( to many so called karaoke singers going out for a pittance) but as long as we  still think we are 18 in the head (though my body says differently) i reckon we will be doing it till we drop  long live the more mature muso,s

Here also bass pedals  and three tiers up ( Yamaha D-80 with third upper manual with portamento)

Began at age 18 with a Farfisa Fast 5 with 13 keys pedal bass for feet , Was one of the most challenging rythms to synch feet with hands : Ipanema's girl ( Garota de Ipanema, BR) IIRC were weeks over and over.

Sometimes feel like can we can found pupils better than we play as happened with J. Satriani / Steve Vai, but

if we we aren't playing like MIDI machines, years also count.

Best,

Rafael

Speak for yourself. I am 60 and can play rings around most all, both feet

and hands, NOT just keyboards,
