I think anybody 163 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 3: would be crazy to believe that. 164 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 2: I think you have to. 165 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 3: Be a little bit crazy to make it to this point, 166 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 3: to be completely honest, But I knew for sure that 167 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 3: I could live a happy life and make a living 168 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 3: and pay my bills, right, whether that was a one 169 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 3: bedroom apartment, you know, as long as when it rained 170 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 3: I didn't get wet, and you know, if I was sleeping, 171 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 3: you know, that's that's that would have been enough for me. 172 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: You know, everything else was always extra. So I never 173 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 3: put any pressure on myself to be a certain way 174 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 3: or achieve certain things, you know, because anything beyond just 175 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 3: being able to be happy and have a good life 176 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 3: was always more than I had ever asked for. So 177 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 3: to have ended up here as an insane blessing, and 178 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: you know I wanted a billion chants, right So, yeah, man, 179 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 3: I never take it for granted. But yeah, it's it's 180 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 3: more complicated than moved to Nashville. And you know, nobody 181 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 3: I didn't walk in the door at someplace and went, god. 182 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: Dang, look at this good look at some bitch. Nobody 183 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 2: that didn't. 184 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: And kepture. So I've been a country music fan my 185 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: entire life, right, So I Willie Nelson and Nancy Griffith 186 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: and all those sort of things country music, Emmy Lou Harris. 187 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: Yes they've been popular, but it's never been your popular. 188 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: It's not stadium popular. Encapsulate for us what you've been 189 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: able to do and how you've been able to do 190 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: it and why it's been that way. 191 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: Gosh, man. 192 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 3: You know, I always tell people if I if I 193 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 3: knew the real answer to that, I would be selling 194 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 3: that instead of doing what I'm doing. 195 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 2: You know. But I think it has something to do 196 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: with one. The genre is as big as it's. 197 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,439 Speaker 3: Ever been right now, Okay, So there's no doubt in 198 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 3: that sense that it's more popular than it's ever been. 199 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: I don't necessarily think that has anything to do with 200 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,199 Speaker 3: me in particular. I think I'm the lucky guy that's 201 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 3: happens to be existing as a country singer at the 202 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 3: time where the genre is at kind of its peak 203 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 3: that it's ever been at and kind of just really 204 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 3: continuing to grow, to be honest. So I think there's 205 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 3: some element of that, you know, But it's a lot 206 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 3: of intent too, right Like the way we've toured for 207 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: the last seven or eight years has always been, you know, 208 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 3: it was intentional. 209 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: You know. 210 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 3: We've been to you know, we've been to Australia three 211 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 3: or four times. You know, we've been to and we 212 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 3: just went to our New Zealand for the first time 213 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 3: last year, you know, And so we've always been intentional 214 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 3: about wanting to you know, we look at you know, 215 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 3: we don't look at Australia, New Zealand or Europe or 216 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 3: Canada as a man, it'd be cool to go there 217 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,959 Speaker 3: and play one show one time, you. 218 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: Know what I mean. 219 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 3: Like, we looked at it from the beginning as how 220 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: do we make this a place that people will want 221 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 3: us to come back to for as long as we 222 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 3: want to go back, right, And so there was always 223 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: intent in in touring, and I think that's really important. 224 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 3: I think having really long term goals is really really 225 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 3: important because you don't get to where we've ended up 226 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 3: now on accident. As far as the being able to 227 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,239 Speaker 3: do the big shows and being able to go overseas 228 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 3: and being able to do big shows overseas, it was 229 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 3: all very very very intentional. 230 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: Well all is.
