Dan Gould Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Well thanks for all the happy thoughts and wishes, everyone. Not the greatest birthday ever, but since I always make sure to take care of myself, I did enjoy: Out of This World, The Three Sounds (JRVG) Soular Energy, The Ray Brown Trio (Pure Audiophile LP remaster) Killer Joe, One For All (Venus) And as is usually the case from my friends and family, there are multiple gifts yet to come. See, I'll get to turn 40 several times in the next few days! Happy Birthday, Dan! BTW, now that you're 40, you can OFFICIALLY take on the role of the crotchety, conservative, middle-aged guy you've been rehearsing so well for years. ← You know, I've been kinda bummed about this "landmark" birthday, but thanks Ron, this makes it all worthwhile. HBD2U ← I have to say, this post made me think of this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rostasi Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Oh, man Dan. Don't get bummed about 40! Forty is that great time when you have that perfect combination of young at heart without a great abundance of naiveté. (tho, you still need some... ) Most of the people that I've grown up respecting did their best work after they had 40 years to formulate them. Yeah, we had some great musicians who did great work before dying at an early age, but I can't help but think what Trane, for instance, might've accomplished if he continued his growth long after 40. Or Brownie, etc... Forty, in many ways, is a great time to start from zero using the ideas that you've formed up to that time. I think that when you hit 50, that's the time to reassess what you've done the previous 10 and see how you feel about how your life's going. Forty was a great "cleansing" time for me. I was actually looking forward to it and have made the most of my forties creatively ever since. Forty's the best! (50 is second best - ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron S Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Happy Birthday, Dan! BTW, now that you're 40, you can OFFICIALLY take on the role of the crotchety, conservative, middle-aged guy you've been rehearsing so well for years. You know, I've been kinda bummed about this "landmark" birthday, but thanks Ron, this makes it all worthwhile. You can reciprocate next year when I turn 50.

Kalo Posted September 17, 2005 Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 Hey, 40's not bad at all. I found it to be much better than 30! Hope you had a good one, and that it keeps getting better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul secor Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Happy Birthday, Dan! And congrats on being able to keep your distance from the Sox this season. Seems like you're in a better place these days. Would that I'd been able to do the same with the Yanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
