I'm a full member of Cheap Trick in all respects. Solely as an accommodation to some of the band members, I reluctantly agreed to take a temporary hiatus from touring.
I don't like doing 25 songs. I think that just kills the audience. I think the show should be 17, 18, 19 songs and encores.
The last thing you want to do is play a long gig on a hot night, pass out, and wind up in a hospital emergency room.
I play every day. I had a bad back, but they fixed it.
