Kickin’ it really, really old school

The Zimmers are a British rock ensemble in which the members are an average of 78 years old. The lead singer, Alf Carretta, is 90, and there are 100-year-olds. The BBC is airing a documentary about them this month, coinciding with the release of their album. In the meantime, here’s a music video for their first single: “My Generation,” of course. This is inspiring enough to make me rethink my policy on old people (i.e., that I hate them). You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video

    Aw, I was hoping that the accompanists were also really, really old, as in TMBG’s “They’ll Need a Crane” video.

    I laughed every time they showed them trying to break the guitars.

    Looks like a Rolling Stones video to me.
