People generally listen to the music they like for their entire life -- someone who is into hardcore doesn't start listening to Lawrence Welk just because they turned 60 ...

Also, "middle-age" refers to the middle of your adult years. If people are adults from 18- 80s, then they typically have about 60-65 or so years of adult life. So 18 + (.5 x 65) = 50.5 = middle aged
@ 59, while I have loads of songs from the 50s -> 80s, my favorite band appears here: The Crxshadows

Wife and I see them every year in concert and I joke with Rogue (lead singer) when we chat that I'm his oldest fan

(I now return to the original broadcast programming--topic)
