LOL!
81 years old now, and he's still touring. Remarkable.
This man was at the epicenter of the creation of rock & roll. Although he’s opinionated as a MF’er, he’s always been a man standing on his own. I always dug the stories of him being a huuuge star wheeling up in his caddie just before showtime all by himself, knocking the crowd dead, and then wheeling away after the show. No entourage, no fan fare, just a sole entertainer doing his thing. The veiled racism on this board always makes me sick.

My granddad was a building contractor for decades. I remember catching him hanging the last piece of a sheetrock ceiling at one of his rental houses when he was 80.
I was kinda pissed at him for doing something I felt was risky, but he blew me off like it was nothing. Gave me one of them sideways grandpa looks, too, for good measure.
And I still wind up panting, trying to keep pace with my 78 year old dad.
