Just out this past Saturday night at a tribute band concert and had a blast observing the following of some of us "Baby Boomers". (Where has time gone?!??)

Top Ten Signs You & The Bands You Loved Are Getting Old When.....

(10) 80% of the parking lot is designated "Handicapped" and 15% is for Rascal Scooters.
(9) Not only is there a coat check, but a section for walkers and canes.
(8) The temperature is turned up to 82 degrees F and most of the audience are still wearing sweaters and cardigans.
(7) Security can't use scanners because they throw the pacemakers out of whack and can only pat you down on the days their arthritis isn't acting up.
(6) Rather than lighters being held high, fans flash their dentures reflecting from the disco ball overhead.
(5) By intermission, there's been enough gas passed to knock a buzzard off a sh*twagon.
(4) During intermission, Geritol and Metamucil martinis are served in the lobby.
(3) Ladies in the second and third rows flash the band their taa taas, but it doesn't matter because the band can't see that close to the ground from the stage.
(2) Rather than "funny cigarettes" being passed around, they're taking huffs off of George's oxygen tank.

and the #1 sign you and the bands you loved are getting old......

(1) The "chicks" are whipping off their Depends and throwing them to the lead singer!!

:rofl:

I was looking at this Boomer singing show on PBS and I felt like a old geezer.

LuLu was there singing To sir with love........... and she was looking young. The 4 seasons were there and The 5th dimension. I just felt old all of a sudden. i remember when I was young and I use to see those 50's singers and thinking look at those old fans. Well................................... Now it's our turn. :crying:

:lol: Isn't it amazing?! Inside you still feel like the same "kid", but forget what you're looking like on the outside. I used to laugh at my mom when she'd see someone who you hadn't seen in a while and say how they were looking old. I'd look at her and say go look in the mirror yourself and we'd laugh.
Saw LuLu not so long ago and actually she looks great (for her age - haha)! At least I think our generation hasn't been aging the same as our parents which is good. Just don't be caught wearing belly shirts and baggies or any kind of piercing other than the ear!

This concert we went to wasn't even stuff that was "that old" - just Bee Gees (from the late 60's through the 80's).

I did see Peter Frampton in concert back in '97 and didn't even recognize him when he came on stage. He was in jeans and a baggy white t-shirt and I just thought "who's the old geezer - get him off the stage and bring on Peter!"

YIKES! ;)

That is so sad:(

You're right. I don't dress at all like my parent's time. I hate those freakin house coast/dresses my mother wears. :p

I went to the Outlet mall the other day and saw those clog shoes. In one ear I heard "Buy those clogs"

In the other ear I heard "Stop it, Stop it you're showing your age.

I think Paul Mccartney is looking better since he broke up with Heather Mills. It looks like he had a lil nip/tuck.

Yay! It's Cathie!!1 :D

Here's a funny story...my former boss and some of his friends went to Vegas to see Sheena Easton's concert. There was no fanfare, announcements or anything, just this rather large woman at center stage singing. It took my boss and his friends a couple songs in to realize that the large woman WAS Sheena Easton. :lol: This was back in 2003-2004. Doesn't really have a lot to do with age, but the remark about Peter Frampton (:rofl:) brought it to mind. It was a far cry from her days as spokeswoman for Bally's. That's sad. :eek:

Here's another item to add to the list: Instead of breaking a guitar, the lead singer breaks a hip. :lol: Yes, I know that's bad; couldn't resist. :D

LOL - good one! Just waiting to hear that happen to Mick Jagger or Rod Stewart one of these days!

I know exactly what you mean about Sheena - my husband did the same thing when we saw something about her on VH1 (or something like that). It was a "Whoaaaaa - THAT'S Sheena Easton?!?!? WTF??)

Yay! It's Cathie!!1 :D


Hiya! Tryin' to drop in whenever I get a free second! :wave:

Here's another one...the white stuff you see on stage is not dry ice...it's GAUZE!! :lol:

Every tattoo in the house looks like its melting...
