It is strange how some bands are acceptable even as they move into their late fifties and sixties. Who would have thought that AC/DC would bother with another album eight years after their last one and that it would be so successful? Or that Canadian Metallers Anvil would experience a resurgence having peaked in the mid-eighties? Motorhead are still touring and doing well even though Lemmy is 63 now! I say keep on rocking if there's a sufficiently-sized fanbase and you can retain your dignity.

It's not like anyone is forcing us to go see them perform or buy their CDs, so it's not a problem. They can Rock until they drop, should they so desire.

I think most of the people I've been to see recently started their careers before I was born, and I'm pretty old :lol:

I've been to see the Bonzo dog doo dah band a few years ago (with Phil Jupitus, Ade Edmunson and Stephen Fry!!!) and they were effing awesome with a capital A!!!
