i believe 30-40 year old is the maximum age for a musician to pursue a band. otherwise, they need to retire.
Iron Maiden are all in their 50's and are still one of the best live bands out there. Motorhead's Lemmy is another example of age being immaterial and let's not forget bands like Metallica and Slayer are well into their 40's and still kicking arse.

BB King also says otherwise and he is in his 80's and someone I would love to see live.
