I've been playing drums for quite some time, yet I feel like I am wasting my time learning contemporary music. I have been told by folks "in the know" that I am too old (looking) to be taken seriously, & that its just how it is in the music industry. (aaaah, I'm gonna' be stuck in the 80's!)

Change your look if you need to.
Otherwise retro bands seem to always be in demand.
I am 56......We rock at this age!!!

Join a DCA Drum Corps
You'll play great music, travel the country and have a fantastic experience.
OR
Find some people closer to your age to play punk music to really turn people's heads

I understand your question and your situation.
After watching some reunion tour with a funk band last night on T.V., it was really sad to see a group of middle aged men playing oldies. I could not help thinking, " why aren't these guys playing Jazz or something"
