I'm just wondering how long drummers can play for before they retire. Who's currently the oldest professional drummer still doing gigs? I'm guessing it'd be someone like Buddy Rich.
no offinse but in case you dont know buddy rich is dead and he pased away back in the late 80's as I recall.
But a lot of the other drummers are still around like louie belson and a few others, it might be worth investigating.
In my opinon it would have to be charlie watts that plays for the roling stones he turned 65 this year. but I am sure there is someone out there that is older.
The late great Bernard "Buddy" Rich died April 2, 1987. Alittle off topic but I was 16 when Buddy passed. So I was bummed (I was/am a huge Buddy Rich fan) Then May 19,1987 my grandfather died. I was crushed.
