I grew up listening to everything. And rock and roll has always been a big, big part of it - as big a part of what I do as any other type of music.
I think everybody would love to say they were in a movie. Whether or not I'm any good at it, I don't know.
I got a hat deal with Resistol, where I have my own line of cowboy hats.
After my first No. 1 song back in 2006, I worried I may never have another one.
People see you onstage and the glamorous side, but they don't see you traveling 600 miles a night, eating truck stop food and spending by yourself staring at walls.
If the right thing comes along and you get an opportunity to be a part of something you believe in, and you think it's cool and want to put your name on it, then you should.
My mom was a single mom, and she had enough on her plate. I knew when I was doing something I wasn't supposed to, and I tried to keep her from finding out about it. I did a pretty good job of that.
I think from an artist standpoint, you have to put out music that you feel like represents you and things you feel like your crowd wants to hear. And if that drives them to go and download the album or the single, that's what we want.
You have record companies that sign acts that they think are great, and then they never do anything. Acts that they don't think are really going to do much end up having a career. I don't think anyone really knows what it is that drives somebody to get on their computer and want to download a song.
I haven't figured out why people like what they like. I don't know. I wish I did. I could sell that to everybody, man, and be a millionaire.
I know I'm not gonna please everybody when I make a record. I don't let that affect any of my decisions.
I love fried okra. The fact that it's okra makes me feel like it's good for you - I forget the fact that it's fried.
'She's Country' obviously changed a lot of things for us and pretty much, I think, doubled our crowd size in just a few months time.
Macon has such a rich musical history - and the state of Georgia, as well.
