"It's always been about great songs and live performances that are over the top for us. The fans are always by our side. I don't know where these years have gone. It passed in a flash. What I can't forget is four decades of fans. who have counted themselves as Crüehead from day one, supported us through difficult times.To them, we owe and thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

"Happy 40th birthday to all of us."
