During a recent interview on SiriusXM’s “Trunk Nation”, Dee Snider was asked if Twisted Sister would ever perform live again. The frontman responded by saying that he has “no plans for it.”
Snider said the following about a potential return:
“I’ve got no plans for it. I’ve heard people [talk about it], and I just shrug my shoulders. The idea of being a hundred on that stage terrifies me.
I created a persona and a performance level for myself that I painted myself into a corner. And there’s a standard that people expect and that I expect of myself. And honestly, I’m afraid of hurting myself because my ego is too big to not thrash about.
I quietly walked away last summer, and I’m doing some KINGS OF CHAOS things this year.
I’ve got no plans on the horizon. And just the idea of a bunch of lumbering old dudes on a stage… I’m not impressed with a lot of the reunions. I won’t name names, but one that’s out there has been performing for way too long in their reunion, and they stand there at their microphones with virtually no movement at all. I was stunned to see a band that used to be all over the stage just standing there frozen in place… For my money, that’s not the memory I want people to have of me and TWISTED SISTER.
So, I have no plans. People say, ‘Never say never.’ But there’s nothing on the horizon.”
