The band still loves to play live gigs, particularly around the midwest. I got backstage when they were here in April, and they were talking about stuff like their kids, dogs, and other bands. I know Rick really digs The Paybacks (even before discovering they do a cover of Stiff Competition). He just did an interview where he said something along the lines of ~we aren't anybody's favorite band, but we're in a hell of a lot of top fives!. I think that sums it up nicely.. They can still bring it live, and the 70-80 minute set seems to be about right to protect Robin's voice.
Robin is 50, I know cuz he told me. I think Bun is oldest, and Rick right behind.
