In general, I'm enjoying my age. I would not return to my twenties for any price. There are things I worry about though. I'm pretty much too old to have kids now but I still sometimes get asked for ID to buy booze. That's a strange phase to be in. I'm a much better musician than I was twenty years ago, so it's easier to get gigs, but it's ten times as hard to find other musicians who might want to tour with me. They've all got jobs, families, and other commitments. The other night, I felt a strange new pain that felt like it was in my wrist bones after a gig, and started to worry about arthritis.
Anyway, I kind of get where you're coming from. My job is also sort of a young people job, and I'm more likely to live out the rest of my days teaching or composing for other people's projects than performing. On the other hand, it's pretty amazing to be alive at all, so I try not to waste my short time on earth being irritated about the details of the process.
