Let The Music Play On Play On!

 

Let's face it. Being a Rock Star demands your full attention. Mind, Body, And Spirit.

But how do the older Rock Stars do it?

Some are in their 60s and 70s, and some are even older!

Like The Ageless Cowboy, Willie Nelson (Age 91) 

Here are some examples of what they do to continue to tour.

Aging rock stars continue to tour by balancing their passion, with physical care, and adaptation. Many embrace lifestyle changes, including diet, exercise, and moderation. Mick Jagger, for instance, follows a strict fitness regimen to maintain his energetic performances. Similarly, Ringo Starr and Keith Richards credit staying active and learning as key motivators. They view aging as a continuation of their craft rather than a limitation.

Adaptation is also essential. Some artists, like Joni Mitchell, who has faced significant health challenges, find ways to perform selectively or focus on other creative outlets. For others, touring becomes less about youthful energy and more about connecting with fans and reflecting on their legacies. Financial considerations also play a role, as the live music industry remains lucrative for many of these rock star veterans.

​Ultimately, these musicians challenge stereotypes about aging, demonstrating that passion and creativity can thrive well into later life. Their resilience and adaptability offer inspiration to fans and a redefinition of what aging can mean in the music world​. 

Music Does Make The World Go 'Round.
