Just talked to Mike and asked him who was playing. Over the course of three nights:

Paul McCartney
Roger Waters
The Who
The Rolling Stones
Bob Dylan
Neil Young

Desert Trip Mega-Festival Featuring Rock Legends Expanded To Second Weekend

All well past their prime but still, pretty damn amazing line up. Lots of top 25 Classic Rock anthems of all time will be played for sure.
Andrés Segovia and Les Paul both lived to be 94 y/o and both never stopped playing the guitar till the end. Physical ailments aside like arthritis there is no time limit for "prime."

The Who playing "We Won't Get Fooled Again" in 2016 can't quite match up with the energy of them playing it in 1973. Not to mention that Moon and The Ox won't be participating = past their prime.
