In a new interview with "The Bogus Otis Show: 9 Degrees Of Sammy Hagar" podcast, Sammy Hagar was asked if there is any chance of original material being written and recorded by his current "The Best Of All Worlds" touring band. He responded (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): "Yes. I guarantee it. I mean, it's, like, I don't know when and why, because records don't sell. I've made a couple of my best records of my life, my last two solo records, and I'm lucky to sell 50 or 60,000 records. You go and make a record nowadays just to lose a couple hundred thousand bucks. It's all good. But I need a tax write-off, so it really helps. 'I made too many this year. Let's go make a record.'"
