I like my music loud, I still now and again have my window open when I do this. Is there a point in life where this is very uncool!? Is it time to close the window and listen to bbc 2. I'm 39!

I have been known to occasionally play Thunderstruck by AC/DC at significant volume, and I'm not far off 50 (having a Harmon Kardon stereo helps).

I like to do this and I'm 49.
It's important to remember though that even though we enjoy it, everyone else thinks you're a sad middle aged man reliving his youth, or so my Wife told me.

Yes, you should be playing

Then you tread the fine line between being an old fule and a young fule who likes a "boy band"

As Bon Scott once sang.

"I'm old enough to worry but not old enough to cry"

Overheard some years ago at a pedestrian crossing in Leith Street, Edinburgh:

Crossing pedestrian to stopped driver playing loud music with windows open: "Shut your feckin' windows. If I want to listen to your feckin' music, I'll sit in your feckin' car!"

I had to laugh smile

It's never cool at any age but when we are young we think it's cool, it's not. As such, turn it up and enjoy yourself smile

Remember the Who did sing the words "Hope I die before I get old". But as they (most) didn't take their own advice why should you.
