      Happy birthday, Steve.

      My question is, will there be an 80 year old Steve Howe fronting Yes in 4 years?

          He seems fit and healthy enough. However at this age a lot can happen/change in four years.

            I believe the average lifetime for a male is now 76. Actually has dropped 1 year in the last decade I believe. So, Mr. Howe is in overtime.

            He appears to have taken care of himself therefore I see no reaon why he cannot keep it up.

            But you are right. At 76 things can change rapidly.

            What a life! Happy birthday.

              Happy Birthday Steve. Thanks for getting me interested in playing guitar, and revealing so many possibilities of what the instrument can produce musically, and internally.

                I took some guesses and filled out the calculator on this website. According to it, he’s very likely to still be at it in 4 years.

                Want to know what the data says about how long you’ll live? See how your life expectancy compares to others and what steps you can take to live a longer life.

                  It’s tempting to blame obesity for this decrease, it according to health.harvard.edu, life expectancy (in the US) is falling because of “COVID-19, drug overdoses, and accidental injury accounted for about two-thirds of the decline in life expectancy, according to [a] 2022 report. Other reasons included heart and liver disease and suicides.” Anyway, I just thought that was interesting.

                    Fast food is a killer. Years and years of junk food and cokes will shorten your life and make the Golden Years not Golden. I see it with many. There are no guarantees but a life filled with exercise and a diet of fruit and vegetables and eliminating junk food , cokes and cigarettes will go along way to having an active and healthy later years.

                      Happy Birthday maestro!!!

                      Fun fact. The next day April 9. My father Harry would've turned 100 if he had lived. We're gonna buy a big cake and play his favourite tenor, Jan Kiepura 😊

                            Going to listen to some select solo of the maestro. A good place to start is Beginnings. My second favorite.

                              That’ll teach him. Banned for implying Steve makes unhealthy lifestyle choices. 😝
                              Maybe we need skill testing questions for new membership applications.
