In 2021, Lukather explained that “there’s not going to be another Toto record” during an interview with MisplacedStraws.COM (via Ultimate Classic Rock).
“Joe and I can make records that have some of the cats on it,” he said at the time. “We can go out and play as Toto. We get the audience, we pay off the people that sued us and we go forward.”
