If I make it to 88, hell, I hope I’m still able to LIFT my American Stratocaster.

The man is indomitable... but age takes it’s toll.

The audience should have had a little more respect; half of them wouldn’t be able to do a tenth of what this man has accomplished in his lifetime.

But we live in a graceless age, with a sizable chunk of people who not only represent it, but propel it further into gracelessness.

Reminds me of my dad taking me to see Lionel Hampton some years back. We left pretty early in the show, as he seemed unable to keep up with his band.

You're right - thanks for sharing.
