Well deserved!!  If I live to 88, I'd love to be able to play at all, much less that well.

Keith Richards is 188 and he's still playing.

I like that. Him playing the Grand Ole Opry or Dolly making it into the RRHoF. Less boundaries. It's all (American) music - the USA's greatest cultural gift to the world. No joke and no mean feat.
