Prior to this, Nugent shared how extremely happy he is for 2026 and declared that this will be his "best year" but "worst" for his enemies.
"I am having the time of my life," the singer-songwriter told The Adam Carolla Show. "Not only is 2026 gonna be the best year in my life, but it's gonna be the worst for my enemies. And I'm not gonna put any energy into pissing off my enemies just by having a good life. It drives them batty. What a dream."
