Ted Nugent talks upcoming live shows:

“We had so many conversations, a lot of people, ‘How come you’re gonna play again? You said you were gonna retire.’ I’ve never used the R word. I made it quite clear that I still crave to play effect. This morning I was playing through a Gibson Birdland through a Fender amp, and my feet never touched the ground. I’m still absolutely stimulated by the pursuit of musical guitar adventure. So with Jason Hartless and Johnny Big, and my buddy here, John Kutz, in Texas, we’re gonna do a bunch of rock outs in Texas in April and May, and then in Michigan, and maybe beyond in August. But yeah, I still play, but as you stated, I need to be home to my dogs every day. When I leave home, my dogs look so sad, and when I come home, they just about blow up running and barking and turning in circles. So I have my priorities. This year I will break 7,000 rock outs. I will go over the 7,000 mark. So I’m still, I’m an old man. I’m 76, but I still crave grabbing that guitar and playing these grinds and grooves and flamethrowin’ fun music, man.”
