Glenn Hughes last night at the Ritz in Manchester. Still absolutely fabulous, I love his pick playing, and his voice…. Absolutely mesmerising, still, at 74yrs old. Amazing performance.

Intelligence peaks around sixty, I suspect musical ability peaks later in life too - as experience (and good taste) compensates for sheer speed.

Intelligence peaks around sixty, 

 

What an odd article - it clearly states what is commonly known but rephrases what it means:

 

The study challenges that belief, showing that while we may think slower with age, we also think deeper, wiser, and more compassionately.

 

'we think slower with age' - yes, i.e. actual intelligence goes down,  "we also think deeper, wiser, and more compassionately." - yes, wisdom and experience go up.

Firstly define 'intelligence'.

Saw Nena (99 Red Balloons) in Manchester on Sunday 12 Oct.  Very good, first time in the UK for about 15 years.

 

 

 

I was also at that gig - Gabriele and her band were superb, she's 65 and bouncing around the stage like a 19 year old for almost two hours.

Hayseed Dixie at the Old Bakery, Truro last week. Phenomenal.
