Velzoe and the Upbeats
Aw, poor
Charles Miller laments his age —
he is one year older than my son.
Some of my favorite quotes about aging:
- Never let your memories exceed your dreams.
- Whine: "I'm getting old."
Response: "It's better than the alternative!"
- If you wanna live a long life, you gotta get old.

noted Charles' lament, and I added a comment there, that went mostly like this:
I just celebrated my 0x32-nd birthday a couple of weeks ago.
We had a band at the party, Velzoe and the Upbeats.
They were outstanding.
See http://63.249.88.129/musicallives/velzoe.html.
Velzoe is a pretty amazing person.
Just about 90 now, still performing, and still a person as full of life
as anyone I've ever met.
When asked what she thinks of living a musical life, Velzoe said, "I'm for it, honey!"
