If you're middle-aged, and still all that "motivated by popularity", then you're not doing middle-age right.
A 50-year old playing guitar is 1,000x cooler than a 50-year old mixing EDM tracks on Ableton, because he thinks it'll help him score 20-year old chicks or impress HN.
No matter what age you are, "adulthood" is pretty much another word for finally having enough self-confidence to do your own thing. It's pretty much always better than "childhood", which is the lack thereof.
- beobab 9y agoAgreed. My dad (70) says he's too old to be "young at heart" any more. He says he's going to try "immature at heart" for a bit.
- hood_syntax 9y agoHah, your dad sounds like a cool guy. Taking everything dead serious and weighing it on the outcome and effort required is a quick way to a boring existence.

- ams6110 9y agoA 50 year old mixing vinyl with turntables and an analog mixer is cooler.
- eggpy 9y agoTell that to EOTO[0]! Two of the guys from String Cheese Incident have a pretty killer EDM band that I've seen melt the face off 20 year olds. [0] - http://eotomusic.com/ http://eotomusic.com/
