Rascal Flatts is one of the rare bands who have enjoyed sustained success for almost two decades now, and they have no plans to throw in the towel anytime soon.

The guys are inside the Top 20 and climbing with their latest hit, “Back to Life,” and their tour dates are still drawing huge crowds.

Jay DeMarcus, Joe Don Rooney and Gary LeVox said they might slow down but they’ll never stop.

“I just don’t imagine we’ll be one of those bands that’ll go, ‘We’re retiring, it’s over.’ I don’t know if we’ll do a hundred dates ever again. You know it’ll look different as time goes on. I know Gary said before he didn’t want to be 60 singing ‘Prayin’ For Daylight.’ (Joe Don) We opened up for Rolling Stones, remember, July 4th, 2015. And ‘ I said ‘God, Gary, you imagine being, you know, early 70s and still doing this?’ He goes, ‘No, no, I don’t. (Gary) ‘Y’all ready to rock?’ (Jay) I’ll tell you what hurts the most!” (laughter)”

Rascal Flatts’ Summer Playlist Tour runs through early November. The guys’ next concert date is on September 12th in Toronto.
