I resemble that remark (64 and there's so much more ). 
 
I do it because I love music and my humble attempts at composition and production are very rewarding at a very deep personal level.

I'll be 61 next month. I love making guitar and piano recordings with Sonar...I don't make much anymore but I sure like the system. Most of my recordings are for my own personal enjoyment and will never be released.
 
Suptin to do.

1953 Vintage here, Been playing since 1960 why would I want to stop? 
 
I find recording a great hobby outlet for music. There certainly not a lot of gigs anymore. And you should try and put together a band with the lot of us! But then I saw the Zombies in Spokane last fall,, their band has been performing since I strummed my first cord and they had no problem rocking out.. Well, the drummer was a youngin'.

I love being a geezer.
It's amazing how many doors are wide open when you're over 60.
 
 
 

unfortunately, it's the exit doors. :)

I will be 62 on May 23rd. I am still very active both on the stage and the studio. I have cut back on the live gigs the last couple of years but I run a fairly successful project studio out of my home here in Macon,Ga. and I still do guitar, bass, and keys for local studios and in Nashville, Orlando, Atlanta, etc.. I am established with the companys I work for well enough that they send projects in Dropbox. That way I can lay my tracks in the comfort of my own home and send them back. The cost of travelling just in studio work alone would be tremendous and moving is just not an option. Needless to say, all my work is done in Sonar and then exported as Broadcast Wav files so they can throw them over into whatever DAW they use. We have also used the Pro Tools format export with great success. It has really made my job a lot easier and creative as well.
I also help other up and coming songwriters produce their songs and try to help connect them to some of my contacts that may be interested in signing a deal. But we all know that is becoming a huge shot in the dark these days.
A lot of guys know the studios I have recorded in and the artists I have played with and they always ask the question. "Why don't you have a wall full of gold and platinum records?" My answer is I was put here in this world to create music. I didn't ask to be a musician. The higher force made me one when it put me here. The rewards are nice but I go about the business of being a musician. For better or worse.

I'll be 63 in June.
I've just always recorded.
Been through so many recording formats! I still love the thrill of hearing a song come together.
I mainly record young, local bands. It helps them out and, it helps me stay semi-relevant in this constantly changing world.
