years cds world
The fan base that I've had all these years has come along. Some of them are not as plugged into the digital world, so they want to go out and buy the CD at Walmart or something.
wife people fancy
I've been a lot of places, and my wife, Denise, she likes a lot of the fancy restaurants. I'm more of a basic eater. I still go into Cracker Barrel. Those are the kind of people who like the kind of music I'm making.
people cynical everyday
If anything good came out of 9/11, to me, was that people were so cynical about the world - all you hear about on the news is all the bad stuff everyday, but what was refreshing to me was after that, you saw how many good people there are out there. For every one bad one, there's a thousand good ones.
age towns my-family
Hee Haw was probably my biggest exposure to live music at a young age, because there wasn't any live music around my town and no one in my family played instruments.
song writing together
A lot of times when songwriters get together and write a song... somebody will come in with a hook and a lot of times they come out with something that sounds a little crafty.
children people politics
Did you weep for the children who lost their dear loved ones and pray for the ones who don't know? Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble, and sob for the ones left below?
grandma years two
I didn't realize until I was older what a huge music fan my daddy really was, and actually that my grandma played banjo at one time, and I didn't even know that until a year or two ago.
song men perfect
He's written some great songs. I thought that "Blues Man" was a perfect song for me to do as a tribute.
soccer red-and-blue people
Wembley way is beginning to blacked with people in terms of red and blue
thinking trying fans
I always try to make the music that I like and think my fans will like.
song thinking mixtures
I think I've always approached making albums pretty much the same way. I'm just looking for a mixture of songs and topics that aren't the same thing over and over.
writing happens
You just write about things that happen.
dream school bigs
When I was in high school, I don't know that I really had big dreams.
real love-you cooking
I love your cooking, honey, but sometimes I need some real food.
