I joined this forum at the end of my forties.

This will be my final post in my fifties.

Tomorrow, April 9th, Hugh Hefner and I each advance another year.

I'll be 60! (Holy S**t!)

Still younger than Hef.

hehehehe

Bill, the guitar one

the good thing is you got more guitar picks than Hue Hefner has white chicks.

Happy Birthday Bill, I hope you see it as a positive thing. Terry said it best.
Anyway the main question is has Bill had more guitars than Hugh Hefner has had women? :-)

Have a spectacular 60th Birthday! I hope it is filled with Alembic joy and the dram of your own choosing. 60 is the new 40 as Terry said, and soon to be the new 35. Good news for all of us!

Happy 60th Bill!

It's been a great 11 plus years with you here. Hopefully I'll get to the Gathering this year. I wouldn't say no to that fast food burger place we went to on the way to the Mothership last time! I'll even buy you a shake to celebrate your birthday.

Old age getting to you, Bill? You've completed your 6th decade so now you're entering your 7th. Do not let that stand in the way of having a ball today (if you wish to have one).

Many happy returns!

Bill -

Have a great day and be sure to carve out a little quality time with your Alembics - especially that Featured Custom Further!

That one's the "icing on the cake" for sure!

Well, William Esquire, since BOTH of us are now in that age bracket, I hope we find that THIS is the Swinging Sixties ! Happy Birthday.

Thanks, everyone. I had a great day. Funny though, I don't feel any different. But I got some some wonderful socks and shirts, including a "More Cowbell" shirt.

Bill, togo (the old guitar one)

Hello Bill ,
I have been trying to convince my self that the transition from 59 to 60 for me will be largely perceptional. Just like a sale in a store for $99.99 , rather then $100.00. In other words just a little difference . IN recent times in many ways I actually seem younger and better. Furthermore , I would think that the playing of music will also be better at 60 at just a little increment as well . Congratulations and hopes for 60 more on Earth !

Thanks, guys. It was the best 60th B-day I ever had. I wonder if my 120th will be twice as good!

happy belated fellow deadhead!

how did the gig go?

I always thought stone trout and my old jam band SuperTrout would make a nice double bill.
