Can’t relate to the whole listening to oldies radio stuff but listening to new music from fantastic young bands and realizing you are probably never going to another live gig in your life is a bit unsettling. Also realizing you should have learned stuff like musical instruments decades earlier when you had more flexibility and it felt like learning was faster.
Yeah I felt I dated myself by talking about listening to the radio. I don’t know if this is of any help to you: I started taking guitar lessons at 50 and although I may never perform publicy, I enjoy just playing alone or with a few jam buddies. Around the same time I started going to punk shows again and after a little time made friends with some of the regulars (just like old times). Covid and inflation derailed that but I still make it out a few times a year. We all have our own personal obstacles though

When did Nirvana become classic rock?
We’re well past that day. Foo Fighters are played on our Classic Rock station.
Considering the Bowling for Soup’s song 1985 from 2003,
I’d say around 2013, which makes Bowling for Soup also classic rock.
