Default The Official Music Banter Old Fogeys Thread

Come in, come in! WIPE YER FEET, WHY DON'T YE? THINK CARPET GROWS ON TREES? Sorry, sorry. Welcome to the clubhouse.

If you're 22 in body but 52 in mind, then yes.

What? You think I have time, at my stage of life, to go searching to see if there are similar threads? I'm far too busy staying one step ahead of the Reaper - BOC don't know what they're talking about. That guy is one to fear!
I WANT ATTENTION! Everybody listen to ME!
