Classic Rock Revisited founder Jeb Wright recently caught up with BUCKCHERRY guitarist Keith Nelson. An excerpt is available below:

Jeb: Give me the update on what is going on with the Jagermeister tour.

Keith: "Unfortunately we had two shows that got postponed due to bad weather but we are making arrangements to redo those shows. We have HELLYEAH, THE DAMNED THINGS, ALL THAT REMAINS and us and we are rolling through and having a really great time on this tour."

Jeb: This is a great opportunity for you. Buckcherry in concert is great and you get to do the entire full set. Buckcherry is a real rock band that has the grit and passion that is missing from most live acts today.

Keith: "I appreciate that. It kind of seems that there are not many rock n roll bands left. We consider ourselves to be one. It all comes down to the live show. The live show drives everything that we do; the way we rehearse and the songs that we write. I am glad you picked up on that. We love what we do so that really drives everything. The most important thing is really the show we have to do that night so everything we do is going to serve that. We have been doing it so long that it is just how our lives are. Living out of a suitcase and playing rock n roll every night is what we do; it comes naturally to us."

Jeb: All Night Long is a great album. You have not made a bad song since Josh and you put the band back together. I feel each album gets better that the one before.

Keith: "I think each time we make a record we top the previous one. Sometimes they don’t sell as well as the previous one or maybe it does not have the same commercial success as the one before it but I think that we do not make the same album over again. When you’re in a rock n roll band there is a fine line to walk there. I think we have become better musicians and songwriters than we were before. Plus we have a great band that we have spent every waking second with for the past six years. We know each other very well."
