Hope you have fun with it.
I'm 69 and have been playing nearly 65 years.
I still play piano & guitar every day. (I started playing guitar 50 years ago right after I graduated college.)
I don't perform anymore except the occasional open mic night on 12 string guitar.
But, I played in bands, mostly as a multikeyboardist, for 30 years.
I only lasted that long because it was fun.
It's supposed to be fun!
Here's an example of me having that fun. I wrote this sing in around 1990. I had the guitar player sing it, instead of me, because he really liked the melody. He repaid that generosity by playing the my guitar solo from the demo almost note by note.
