"All of us can't wait to get out there whatever way"
About this Quote
Restless, a little sloppy, and perfectly on-brand, Ron Wood's line reads like a backstage exhale caught on a mic. "All of us can't wait" collapses individual desire into a band-sized pulse: not one star itching for the spotlight, but a unit vibrating with the same hunger. It's also a subtle bit of morale management. In rock, anticipation is currency; if the performers sound eager, the show already feels half-lit.
The phrase "get out there" does heavy lifting. It doesn't mean leaving a room so much as crossing a threshold into the charged space where music becomes spectacle and risk. For a veteran like Wood, "out there" is the arena, the crowd, the unpredictable weather of live performance - the place that can still make a decades-long career feel urgent.
Then comes the tell: "whatever way". It's a shrug that doubles as a strategy. The wording dodges specifics because specifics can betray you: tours get delayed, sets change, bodies age, bands fracture, headlines intervene. Wood's looseness is protective, keeping the promise emotional rather than logistical. It also smuggles in a punkish flexibility: we'll show up, in any configuration, under any constraints, because the point isn't perfection; it's contact.
Culturally, the line lands in a moment when "getting out there" is never guaranteed - by illness, politics, burnout, or the sheer machinery of touring. Wood channels a working musician's pragmatism: the hunger to play doesn't disappear; it just finds a route.
