Bon Jovi 's Tico Torres says recent internet reports about him retiring from the band are not true.

Currently in his 42nd year with the band, the 71-year old drummer and golf enthusiast addressed the rumors with a video posted to the band's social media accounts.

"I'm here to dispel a lot of rumors that I've read," Torres begins. "People [have been] calling me up saying 'did you retire from music, from the band?' well... no, i have no idea how this stuff starts. Musicians don't retire, especially me. Me and the boys, Johnny and everybody, we're still making music.. I mean, the best we've ever been. All I can tell you is, don't listen to what you read, it's most likely bullshit. See you later!"
