The Zimmers is a rock band unlike any other. This band has a whopping 50 members. And each one holds a distinguished title—elderly.
The name Zimmers comes from the British brand of metal-frame walkers. The lead singer, Alf, is 100. But he’s far from the oldest member. Buster (watch for the bushy beard) is a young-at-heart 101.
The Zimmers perform a cover of The Who’s My Generation. The video was featured in a documentary about Britain’s elderly. It was released as a single, reaching No. 28 on the UK Singles Chart

I was waiting for the bus once at the university. University Drive is a very busy street and one fancy car drove slowly by blaring some rap music. Not the awful kind with all the 'F' words. It had a great beat and I was tapping my foot and nodding my head. The dudes in the car saw me and got the biggest grins on their faces and gave me a thumbs up.

these guys put me to shame already!

I've seen them on TV over here in Britain several times.
They are remarkable and they have such zest and enthusiasm.

Personally, I do numbers. Some things improve with age in my experience. Married life improves - when you're young, the women tend to be very shy and withdrawn. Coming of age, the male part slows down a bit and the female part becomes more active.
People tend to be able to meet in the middle of the road, so to speak.
And, yes - we can still also sing rock n'roll.

Thanks for sharing this

Seen this before and loved it. Still loved it. Great to see it again.

the lust might become care and compassion but the
"rock n'roll" is more felt! I couldn;t agree more!
I feel that my thoughts in my 20's were way too different that they are in my 40's. not to mention feelings...
Angeliki # 16. June 2009, 17:47
once I asked my late mom if the desire is still alie at 60..
She laughed and said " our bodies grow, our hearts have no age"
Angeliki # 16. June 2009, 17:52
I am glad you had a chance to enjoy again a worth watching video...
I do test my videos always before I save my posts...
the link is in case an Internet connection does give problems ,I am glad it worked for you ..

sometimes a slow Internet or a tired computer does that!
so far every body else had no problem... I am glad you did see it after all! I think it is not a big deal and I promise always to add the link to be on the safe side...
Angeliki # 16. June 2009, 18:35
I am also glad they had all words written on paper! that made the recording go smooth too!

I love their band and that is so cool they are rocking out!
Before I met my husband I was determined to be the lady with tons of cats and wear evening gowns while riding a bicycle. (I tell him he ruined my dream and he says I'm strange!
Angeliki # 17. June 2009, 00:55
the combination sounds amazing!
as for the years going fast... sometimes people tell me :
wow! your children grow so fast!
to me it feels like ages...
I grow older fast! maybe because my life is so busy I have no time to think of days, months or even years!
I am blessed to be a healthy person,
when I was having a bad cold a couple of weeks ago and did stay in bed the days looked sooooooooooooooooo long!
if you had to live your very young years ,would you change anything?

my old poem:
Old
My body is old. I am not.
I will wear long silk scarves of many colors
When 100 years have passed.
My hair will be long and white
My eyes will become translucent
Seeing the truth.
I will run fast with skinny legs.
My children's grandchildren
Will cherish me
As an ancient treasure.
I push them on the swing and sing.
They know I sing a song of sadness
Which is real.
All they care is they love me.

Angeliki # 17. June 2009, 02:33
this is a very sweet poem!
"All they care is they love me."
yes!
Edward Piercy # 17. June 2009, 02:59
@ A.
Oh yes, Alicia. A natural redhead. And very talented. She plays classical piano.
You know Anna P. plays the cello. And she's a vegetarian.
Thanks for thinking of me!
I've been back in The Cave since noon. Not feeling the greatest. But I have a doctor appointment a week from tomorrow.
Well enough complaining. Kisses from Sasha.
Angeliki # 17. June 2009, 03:22
I hope you feel better Eddie,
and good luck tomorrow... *hugs*
PS
Eddie,
I always think of you when I see a "red head",
Pam when I see a pained art on a wall,
John when I have a drink even if it is a V8,
Allan when I visit a photography site,
Matt when I see a girl with big ( . Y . )
Martin when I hear the drums in a music video,
Carol when I see an interesting link
Darko when I see a picture of an eagle,
Olgita when I see a baby,
David Australia when I see a lame joke
Jurjen when I see unusual art,
Chuck when I see web news,
Zaphira when I see a cat picture or the real think,
Issy when I see a picture of Johnny Depp,
Scott every time I read a poem or crave "baklava",
Star when I see the sky....
Anne when I see a picture of a mermaid.......
Casey when I have tea,
Larry when I study for a test,
Naomi every time I visit twitter or face book,
and David when I read a joke and laugh...
OK
you get the idea!
as for my Amir, I worry sick for him,
he is in harms way and I just think of him lots these days...
scott cumming # 17. June 2009, 04:14
Edward Piercy # 17. June 2009, 04:21
Although I did think that it would be me you think of when you see a cat!
Doctor is 24th. I take the phone and this time will have something to do in the waiting room.
Angeliki # 17. June 2009, 04:35
he is 22 and smart for his age ,
but at 22 we did not feel fear...
you do know what I mean....
Angeliki # 17. June 2009, 04:45
have you ever been to Zaphira's blog?
she is the official Opera kitten
I am glad you enjoy your phone Eddie,
I really do.
I usually meet all the people at the waiting room
(if I ever go for an annual check up).
Last time I met two ladies,
one was telling me how Opera and Gail are more than friends and of course another was very much against the gay people.
When I told her that sometimes I use a man's bathroom she almost fainted
it is true when there is no available bathroom I will use a man's.
In her eyes I was sinful to the point of no return.
then the conversation shifted to
"if there is a cross dresser is it Ok to use the womens bathroom?"
I said "yes",
well that brought another 5 people into the conversation
yes,
I am a peoples person and before you know it I can be voted by strangers in a doctors waiting room
as "the most sociable member with a Greek accent "
now why did I share all these?
not a clue
not that you or anybody else cares anyway..
Angeliki # 17. June 2009, 04:47
meli,
did you notice my comment in your latest entry?
Edward Piercy # 17. June 2009, 05:14
But I liked your story it was great. And it makes me think of ideas I could bring up at the cardiologists. Like maybe I could turn to someody and say "Did you know that some hunter cultures would eat the hearts if their enemies? And the Aztecs would cut the living heart out of their victims?"
No maybe I shoulnt talk about that stuff huh.
