34
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: hear the music or was that because you liked them

35
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: as friends and you wanted to hear your music. No,

36
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: that was me trying to get it, you know, just

37
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: opening every door possible. And I definitely wanted to hear it,

38
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: but I was trying to get something going and not

39
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,120

00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: was working on music, and yeah, Sarah, anyone I thought

41

Speaker 1: could like be of help with, like you know, of

42
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: hearing that and help me maybe putting someone's hands or

43
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: getting get kicked out of doors. It was the point.

44
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: But I can't leave you remembers that. Yeah, we worked

45
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: at team in the buildings gone. We used to work

46
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: as across Street and the Opery House. And when Tina

47
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: and cmt we're gonna all pack together. And I was

48
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: just doing anything I could at that point, Um, you know,

49
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: recording songs. I was playing downtown on Lower Broadway. I

50
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: was writing it. Uh you know as cap and the

51
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: little writers whom they have upstairs for they allow anyone

52
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,120
Speaker 1: to write in So it's just kind of a thing.

53
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: I'm just a shotgun blast of putting my stuff out

54
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: there and seeing what would stick. And I'm sorry but

55
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: my voice, by the way, but I just did three

56
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 1: shows in a row and travel back today from South Dakota,

57
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 1: and my voice is a little fried. Do you when

58
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: you try? You always fly back. You always fly your

59
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: own plane back, always fly the band now, I always

60
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: fly that. I don't know what your thing is a

61
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: flying if there's some deep it's one of two things,

62
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: because I don't I don't understand the flying thing with

63
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 1: you and so much so, and I think you're probably

64
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: good pilot. I mean, you have to be right. They

65
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: also called them those little planes like you know, law

66
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: your killers, because you get just that, you get enough

67
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: and out there. Yeah, it's man of the flying thing

68
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: is so um it's you know, it's a whole another show,

69
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: but it is, you know, it's it's a it's a manifestation.

70
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: That's something that I put out there a long time ago.

71
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: And um, I think it's one of the United Sharing

72
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: Commons manifesting our realities and and and it starts with

73
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: small things. Start off me just when I was nineteen,

74
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,360
Speaker 1: want to get my pilots license. And it took me

75
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: three years to get it. Why do you want to

76
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: get a pilots I just wanted to fly. I just

77
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: had that when I was when I was a kid,

78
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: I made model airplanes. I just wanted and I just

79
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: wanted to fly. And it took me three years just

80
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,640
Speaker 1: because it took time and money to do it. I

81
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 1: got my pilots license, and then I just stopped flying

82
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: because I didn't have a mission. And then I flew

83
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,239
Speaker 1: with Kenneth Chesney one time, coming back from the show

84
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: in a private jet, my first time ever in a jet.

85
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: I was like, this was unbelievable. It was back in

86
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: two thousand three was me, Keith and Kenny in a plane.

87
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: It was awesome. I was like, whoa, this is what

88
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: I want, you know, And so I've done this with

89
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: a couple of things. I made my password on my computer.

90
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: When we landed, we went to like a different terminal

91
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: right where jets go, and it was a place called Signature.

92
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: It was like a that's where it's like a the

93
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 1: the little general aviation plane for a place for jets.

94
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: And I wrote, I made signature my password in my computer.

95
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: And so every time I get on my computer at

96
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: a type of words signature, and I was like, I'm

97
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: gonna get I wanna I want to own a jet.

98
00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, my career kind of stalled out

99
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: around two thousand and eight and that dream I was

100
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 1: looking at that's never gonna happen. I'm never going on

101
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: a jet school. But uh, you know, that dream kind

102
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: of went away. And I was planning a gig somewhere

103
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: with halfway to Hazard of all people, and a little

104
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: plane flew overhead and these guys like I always look

105
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: at the planes, and these guys, that's Tim McGraw's, that's

106
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 1: he's Tim's up there flying that plane to the gig today.

107
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 1: It was a charity gig we are doing. I was like,

108
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: Tim McGraw has his own COLOGN. He's not flying around

109
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: in a little six cylinder prop plane by him, you know.

110
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 1: And sure enough it's Tim McGraw and he's like, yeah,

111
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: I'm getting polostle license. And he was flying the school

112
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 1: plane and getting my pilot's license and he was flying

113
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: the plane. Oh, he was an instructor flying to a

114
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: gig multitasking. And so I went out the next day

115
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: and started flying with that instructor and I just fell

116
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: back and love with flying again. And I had had

117
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: a kid at this point to every was born. So

118
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:55,479
Speaker 1: I was looking for ways to kind of cut the

119
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: corners off some of my travel. At this point, I

120
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: was flying south west all the time, and so I

121
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 1: started flying a small plane NonStop because of a of

122
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: a McGraw and I put about five six, seven or

123
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 1: hours and not playing find everywhere, And a long story short,

124
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: how things you put them out to the the universe that

125
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: they come back to you. I was flying out of

126
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: a hair. I flew a commercial plane indo hair, went

127
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: around to the other side of the airport and jumped

128
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: in my plane, a little prop plane that someone had

129
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 1: met me with to fly to a gig in a

130
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: small town, and I was using the bathroom at the

131
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: urinal and I looked up and the word signature was

132
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 1: above the urinal and I was like, oh, my God,

133
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: Like it totally worked out in the way I wasn't expecting.

134
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna be in the back of

135
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: a jet, you know, that was my my what I

136
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: was manifesting, hoping to manifest end up being in the

137
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: front left seat of a prop plane, which is way cool.

138
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: I robly be the pilot than a passenger. And uh,

139
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: it's just it's crazy to even things out there like that.

140
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: And they come around and now and they continue to evolve.

141
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: I've met, you know, I met the guys at SESSAM,

142
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: became friends with the the guy that runs the company,

143
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: and find a little bit different plane now that I

144
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: can actually hold all the guys in my band, they're

145
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: they're all brave enough to fly with me. And I

146
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: have another pilot that flies with us too, so there's

147
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: two us up front. The plane is just because we

148
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: were together in Vegas and you're like, hey, we're leaving

149
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: at four pm. Tomorrow if you want to. I was like, dude,

150
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: I appreciate the offer. I don't want to get in

151
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 1: a small plane like that, Like I don't feel comfortable.

152
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 1: Yeah you if you flew, you know, for me and

153
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: the guys of the band, it's you know, it's we

154
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: have kids, and it's just like I remember the first

155
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: tie I took a guitar player with me, our old

156
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: guitar player, Brian Lason. He's like, I'll go up with

157
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: you one time when it's perfectly clear and we don't

158
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: go a mile from the airport. I was like, all right,

159
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 1: we'll see about that. I flew him home one night

160
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: for my gig, so you got to be home at

161
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: midnight instead of getting home the next day on the

162
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: bus at like ten am. I called him Velcrove because

163
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: I could not get him out of the seat. He

164
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: was stuck to that seat. Every time I was flying

165
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 1: in ice, rain, snow, he was always like the first

166
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: one wanted to go, because it's a time machine. If

167
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: you've got kids in this business, um, you have to

168
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 1: be two places at once. It's definitely just and maybe

169
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: not that plane, but you know, sometimes work if they're

170
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 1: somewhere out to get quick. They'll send a plane. Yeah,

171
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: and they'll go, hey, we need you New York to

172
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: Los Angeles and then we need you back in New York.

173
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: So they'll send their plane and I'll just get shipped around.

174
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: It's again, it's a change like it is, and it's

175
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: a total luxury, and it's crazy even talking about it,

176
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: but it is for me. I want to be as

177
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: successful as a dad as I am, as I feel

178
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: like as I've been as a as a singer entertainer.

179
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: And to do that, you have to be present. You

180
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: have to be there. You can't talk about it. You

181
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: have to be there for the make the breakfast. You

182
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: gotta be there to go the games. You gotta be

183
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: there to do all the the little things, the tiny

184
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: things and the dumb things. And uh a lot of math,

185
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: all right? Are you doing math all the time up

186
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: there or not? Really? I'm just a calculator the whole time.

187
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: I'm going to nobody Austin, you know, I fly with

188
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: This is such a help. I mean, it's when you've

189
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: got a two man crew, it really helps out a lot.

190
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: But we've got a great product and find Assessina Plaine

191
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: and it's it's it's really reliable, great people in the

192
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: great service, and it is just it makes and I

193
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: fly the whole band with me too. Those guys go

194
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: with me everywhere, and so when we walk on stage,

195
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 1: they're in a great mood because their families are happy,

196
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: their wives are in good spirits with their kids that

197
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: morning we hit the stage. It makes for a better show.

198
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: I mean, it makes it's a win win for us,

199
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: for our fans and obviously for our kids. So it's

200
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: it's kind of at this point of my career, it's

201
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: one has to you know that they go hand in hand.

202
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: How do you do your band? Because so I have

203
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 1: are a little stupid band, and I have a couple

204
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: of people that I keep on all the time, my

205
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: drummer or my bassist. They're just my drummer and my

206
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: basis cool. But do you but everybody else kind of

207
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: trickles in and out. I pay them, you know, they

208
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: have to get paid differently because some do some shows.

209
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: Is your whole band like on a retainer? Like do

210
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: you pay them a salary? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, So they're

211
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: like your people. Yeah, that's I mean, I've always been

212
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: a band guy. When I was playing down over Broadway.

213
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: I just like being in the band, you know, I

214
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 1: love at a list of like, you know, a hundred

215
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: guys that've met over the year the years of being

216
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 1: down there. If I needed to steel player, I'd call

217
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 1: Rusty dan Meyer. If I needed up by a bass player,

218
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 1: I'd call this guy. And so I just I've always

219
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 1: loved musicians. They're my favorite people. They're just to be

220
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,839
Speaker 1: a great musician, you have to learn from all the

221
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 1: people before you, so it really humbles you to a degree.

222
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: You know, you don't think you're the greatest guy ever

223
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 1: because you have to study all the people that came

224
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: before you to get good. So they're just great people.

225
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: They're fun to be around. They don't know how to egos,

226
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 1: but you pay them, they get company. Yes, it wasn't

227
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: the right thing. When you actually get a band, you

228
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: go from paying the day rates when you can actually

229
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: put them on salary. It's like the best feelings. It's

230
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 1: a big deal for them beyond salary, and so yeah,

231
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,080
Speaker 1: they get you're gonna pay the salaries without the whole year,

232
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: whether we're touring or not. It's awesome. If they came

233
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: to you and said, hey, Dirk's listen I'm gonna leave them,

234
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: gonna go over to Urban. No one's leaves my band

235
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: because they just enjoyed them, because because they love we

236
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 1: have a great vibe together. We're super close. Were as

237
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: close it's probably your morning shows. And they get paid

238
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: really well. And they fly everywhere with me to every

239
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: gate when I fly a lot. So they're their lifestyle.

240
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 1: You're get you get in the lifestyle that makes them

241
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,559
Speaker 1: want to stay. There's no gig out there that anyone

242
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: in my band would ever take. You could toss the

243
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: greatest rock band out there. They would never take that gig.

244
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: I treat them like they're those guys are my That

245
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: is all my dude times, all my broad times with

246
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 1: the guys in the band as there who I do

247
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: all my stuff with. That's when I come home and like,

248
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: I don't need to see any ever, males. I'm good.

249
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: I've been with my guys all weekend. We had a

250
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: great time. We went and saw out Rushmore. We were

251
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: in hiking, we play video games, we and we were

252
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: going through this shared experience together. When I walk on stage,

253
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,199
Speaker 1: that's like a you know, I have a lot of

254
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: other friends with these guys. We have a shared experience

255
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: of going out there every day and having to you know,

256
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,599
Speaker 1: run this marathon and crack this rock and break it

257
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: up in the little pieces over and over again. In

258
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: find ways to do it where it makes it fun

259
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 1: for us continually. It's kind of like a therapy session

260
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: in a way, if you really are trying to do

261
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: it in an honest and sincere way that the live

262
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: show that is, and not just put on a show,

263
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,959
Speaker 1: but go through an experience with your fans and with

264
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: your fellow bandmates. Um, it's uh. I really approached that way.

265
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: Obviously it's my deal, but I approach it as a band,

266
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: from the way we interact on stage to even where

267
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: their mics are placed on stage up near mind not

268
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: wait in the back, you know, we're it's more like

269
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: a level. Yeah, I think of Pearl Jam. I try

270
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: to keep it up tight and close like that. So

271
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 1: if you're a way of doing dude stuff, is there

272
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,599
Speaker 1: any resentment from your wife if she's at home with

273
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: the kids and she's like, you get to go and

274
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: do dudes. I know you're working, but still you're doing

275
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: dude fun stuff and then you come home and she's

276
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: with kids. Totally Yeah, I mean I won't say resentment,

277
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,079
Speaker 1: but there's there's I mean there's I have to be

278
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 1: honest about it and transparent about it because I am I.

279
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,319
Speaker 1: I am doing my job. This is what I do.

280
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: But I love what I do. I mean I love.

281
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 1: There's nothing like be on stage with your guys and

282
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: your fans, and and I gotta do stuff. You know,

283
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 1: there's there's work. But yeah, like I when hiking yesterday

284
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: and the Black Hills in the mountains outside of rapid

285
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,040

00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,719
Speaker 1: any any parent, Um, that's the hardest gig man. You

308
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 1: know you, I know how hard you work. It's insane.

309
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: Your your work ethic and I you know, I work

310
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: really hard too. But I think when that when you

311
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: have kids, like it's a whole little level because there's

312
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,679
Speaker 1: such a responsibility there. I mean, you're basically growing this

313
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 1: creature and your input is so important and you don't

314
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: ever get a break. I mean, you're you're it's seven.

315
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,599
Speaker 1: You don't even sleep because someone's having a nightmare, some

316
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: mighty bee the bed. You know, you hear a sound,

317
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: dogs barking. It's just it's so it's twenty seven, it's

318
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: so hard. So unless you're gone for three days and

319
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,599
Speaker 1: it's like you're a vacation. So for me, I'm not

320
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 1: saying for me, I'm saying for her. No, for me,

321
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: it's like I gotta you know, it's kind of like

322
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,719
Speaker 1: pulling the repcord and you get to go on the

323
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 1: road and so you're out there and you can get

324
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,719
Speaker 1: stuff done and you can choose to either you know,

325
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: party or work out or you know. There's a lot

326
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: of freedoms with that. So um, yeah, I just try

327
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: to be really transparent with her and honest that what

328
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: I'm doing, and she's super supportive at the same time. Yeah,

329
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,160
Speaker 1: it's it's it's stuff and I can get that break

330
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 1: you mentioned a minute ago in two thousand and eight

331
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: when you said your career stalled. M hm nine, yeah,

332
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 1: eight or nine, because right now we see you as

333
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,959
Speaker 1: the guy who has You're now in the A it's

334
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: hard to be in the A group. You're in the

335
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: A group. You're now in the A group. I think

336
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: you're a recent addition, just speaking frankly to the your

337
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: region addition to A group. Plus you're you really are

338
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: on the I wouldn't tell you if you are. Plus

339
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: you're in the you're in the you're in the like

340
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: you're in that mix of is he going to be

341
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: in the entertain of your category? Now it's not. He's

342
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 1: for sure gonna be nominated, Like you know, Luke is

343
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,439
Speaker 1: going to be nominated and probably gonna win, and he

344
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: didn't win the a c mL Dean did. But like

345
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 1: you know, Luke gonna but you're on that is he

346
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 1: gonna be in? And it's happened in the last couple

347
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: of years, But it's but you're like the consummate grinder. Yeah,

348
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,000
Speaker 1: I'm used the word a lot. It's like the hockey

349
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: player that goes down there and not the slapshot guy

350
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: from out top, not the fancy ford that's getting the

351
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: sweet goals with the guy that goes down the corner

352
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: and digs the pucks out. You know. That's probably that's

353
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: when my play hockey here in town, in my little league,

354
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: at the er league. That's kind of my role in

355
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: real life on that hockey team. And uh, I think

356
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: in my career, yes, it's all about it's about grinding.

357
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: My favorite quote, um is was written on a was

358
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: it Calvin Coolist quote? It's about you know, persistence and determinations.

359
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 1: You know, education and talent and genius can't take the

360
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: place of persistence and determination. That is the key to

361
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: my success for sure, and I know probably for yours

362
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: as well. I mean, there's no reason why I should

363
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: be a country singer or a pilot. But you know,

364
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: there's just things that um, I wanted to do. And

365
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 1: if you work harder than anyone else, UM, you've got

366
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: a better chance of making that happen. What what happened

367
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: in two thousand eight, two thousand nine, and your mind

368
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: that you took a step back. You know, I went

369
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: out on the road with UM. I play a thousand

370
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: eights in my own. I went out the road with Kenny,

371
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 1: and then I went on the road towards straight and

372
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: I went back on the road with Kenny. And that's

373
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 1: usually that's usually the platform to jump off of, you know,

374
00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: And that's where urban flats everyone went through Kenny back

375
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: when those when we were starting off. If you got

376
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,320
Speaker 1: the Kenny gig boom, you were a couple of years

377
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 1: in near you be headlining on your own. And you know,

378
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: we're really looking like a two thousand and eight would

379
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 1: be bringing out some video and it's gonna be this

380
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: kind of the ground swell and really, uh it's for

381
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's just the songs weren't there. That's what

382
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: it comes down to. Um. I was writing pretty much

383
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: all my own songs, working lout with some some friends

384
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: mine here in town. And and it's not their fault either,

385
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: it's it's it's nobody's fault. I'm so happy that things

386
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: are what they are. But I think I discovered you

387
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: can't tour. I think I was in my mind, I

388
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: was trying to make albums that would um be jet

389
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: fuel for the for touring, Like how can this album?

390
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: How can this song lead to headlining? And that's and

391
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: you know, I need, I need the song and help

392
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: me get there. And that's just a terrible way to

393
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: make records. And nothing against those records. Those records still

394
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: sound like some of are so some of my favorite

395
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: signing records, but as far as singles go, and songs

396
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: are gonna move the needle and really, uh, you know,

397
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: and I feel like I just needed to reset. Um.

398
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I just I was you

399
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: can only work so hard, man. I was working so

400
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: hard on the road, touring NonStop. Um, you know, jumping

401
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: off stage, I'm stage diving, I'm pulling fans up. I'm just,

402
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: you know, known as the hard was working man in

403
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 1: country music. We did like forty one shows and forty

404
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 1: five days one time. I mean, I'm out there all

405
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: the time, and I'm trying to rush back here and

406
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: make records and then go back out there again, and

407
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 1: it just it just doesn't It just doesn't work that way.

408
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,360
Speaker 1: So I was on the road two thousand eight or

409
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: nine with Paisley and uh I said, I tried my

410
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: headline thing. It just wasn't working. So I was like, okay, retreat.

411
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: Brad was had a chance to go with Brad and

412
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: I was on that tour and uh I was opening

413
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: for him, and there's a lot going on that tour.

414
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 1: Weren't really getting a chance to sound check um, and

415
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: it was just the vibe of my band just crashed.

416
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: It was kind of the tour that just everyone like,

417
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: you know, we're just only playing for forty five minutes,

418
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: and it's just the songs weren't really there. And I

419
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: just was like at the back of my bus one

420
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: day and I remember thinking, I'm gonna make a bluegrass record.

421
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: I wanna make a bluegrass record and a country record,

422
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: and just I need to get creative. That's why I

423
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,199
Speaker 1: kept thinking, is I need to get creative because when

424
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 1: you're you're in that opening slot, especially after you've headlined

425
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 1: for a little while, it's tough to go back and

426
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: just do fourty five minutes of the same show every night.

427
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: You know, you're trying to make the most of that

428
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 1: forty five minutes, so you kind of get locked into

429
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: doing the same show and just killed all of us. So, um,

430
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 1: I left and mid uh end up making just just

431
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: a bluegrass record, and uh really, and I went back

432
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: in the process of making that, being off the grid

433
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 1: and not worrying about singles or touring or anything, just

434
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 1: trying to make a great record that stood alone up

435
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 1: by itself, it was existed just for for itself. Totally

436
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: rechanged my thinking. And um, you know, I started looking

437
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: around people like Miranda Lambert and she only writes half

438
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: her album if even that, you know, and and Lady

439
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,080
Speaker 1: A and these people at the time, we're like, you know,

440
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: they're collecting great songs. You know, they came to realize

441
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: that after your second album, you can't write an entire album.

442
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 1: Just did no time in your touring all the time,

443
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: so many of the responsibilities I hadn't know. I was

444
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: married at this point with kids too. So the blue

445
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: Grass record, you know, I was working the guy have

446
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: John randall Um, one of my best friends, and he

447
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: was bringing me great songs from Christofferson and Buddy Miller,

448
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: and just like we started making a collection of of

449
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 1: an album that had my input but also had songs

450
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: that kind of rounded out what I was trying to

451
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: say or the field of the album. And I carried

452
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: it on with working with Ross Comperman into the next

453
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 1: couple albums and uh, really trying to make albums that

454
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 1: don't worry about touring, dorry about anything. Who cares? Just

455
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 1: make a great record? And U and one of the

456
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 1: great things. Now I don't know a lister, but wheream

457
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: my careers. There's the better off you are doing touring

458
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: and and the more of you you have those fans

459
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: and more freedom you have to say, who cares, Let's

460
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 1: make the record you really want to make. I feel

461
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,440
Speaker 1: like that's why Keith is Um is making like his

462
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: best records, Keith Urban's records me just get better and

463
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 1: better each time because I like he's even more like

464
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: I don't care I'm gonna make great music that makes

465
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: me happy that I like and hopefully you like it too.

466
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: But there's no there's no math behind it. You know,

467
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: it's just totally it's pure arts. And you didn't have

468
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 1: to worry about where he's gonna get his next meal.

469
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,920
Speaker 1: You know, he's just making great records. And I feel

470
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: like there's on both ends of the spectrum. When you're

471
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 1: first starting off and you're so hungry, and then when

472
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: you get to place you have a little bit of

473
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: success and you have that freedom that it brings you,

474
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 1: you can really make your best records, and I feel

475
00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: like that's what's happening now. I'm not sure to answer

476
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: your questions, but well, I love him, man. It's hard

477
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 1: for me to be friends with him because I just

478
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: have so much respect for him. It's like we're good friends,

479
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 1: but at the same time, like you're Keith Urban, it's

480
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: almost it's almost like why do you This is the

481
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,199
Speaker 1: feeling I have with him because him and I are

482
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: closer than him and than me and other arts, and

483
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: he's one of the guys that I like and we'll

484
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,840
Speaker 1: talk too off the show. But that's like what I was, like,

485
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: why do you want to be friends with me? Eight

486
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,480
Speaker 1: Like you're so smart, and you're so talented, and you're

487
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: so rich, Like everything about you was way better that

488
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: why would you want to be friends with me? That's

489
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: how I feel with him. He is um for me.

490
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 1: He's like a he's like a beacon. He's someone I

491
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 1: look up to for advice on just for for lifestyle

492
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: and management and how you approach things. And he's just

493
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: he's so present, which is something I always you know,

494
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 1: that's my main thing with anything I do, is trying

495
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: to be as president as possible in the moment that

496
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: I'm man, and he really is a true reflection of that.

497
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: I mean when when you speak to him, when you

498
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 1: talk to him, he's so focused on what you have

499
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: to say. He's listening, and uh, it's very uncommon in

500
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: this business full you know, singers and people are trying

501
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 1: to look at me, and you know, are have like

502
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: five seconds looking at your eyes and they're kind of

503
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 1: thinking about the next thing. He's just really focused and

504
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: present and has great advice and it's been through a lot,

505
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: so he can offer a good um good gems. But

506
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: whenever I see him at she's on a Sunday uh,

507
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: and we're doing some with our kids or something, and

508
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,359

Speaker 1: like I'm not trying to do anything, and like, you know,

608
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,119
Speaker 1: because I gotta go right back in the bus and

609
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:23,680
Speaker 1: tell my wife what just happened. You know, I can't.

610
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna lie about this is gonna be on TV.

611
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,440
Speaker 1: Come back in the bus, and it's like, so, how'd

612
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 1: that go? I'm like, well, yeah, it was. It was something.

613
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 1: And I think that was one of the last videos

614
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: I did where it's not I'm all. I'll do whatever

615
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:42,359
Speaker 1: it takes to help to help the song, not commercially,

616
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 1: but just the story. You know, the song is all

617
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: that matters in this towns all that matters me. And

618
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: there's a video that that can help tell that story

619
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 1: about it, and I'll do whatever it takes. You know,

620
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 1: I'll go anywhere, do anything. But I'm just not an actor.

621
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 1: And if you look at keys videos, just recently did

622
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: he start kind of going back into some acting stuff.

623
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 1: For many, many, many years, Keith would just play guitar

624
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: and let the actors do the acting, let the singer

625
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 1: to the singing and make a great story video, not

626
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: trying to do the whole thing. And I don't respect

627
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: to that. And it makes sense because I'm not very

628
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 1: very good actor. If there's a hot girl licking your

629
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: neck and you're in your boxers like band aids. But

630
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 1: how do you constill your pasties? You know what? Just

631
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: mind control Jedi mind contro But I don't have I

632
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 1: don't have it. I have it, I know no. And

633
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: that's it's like I'm just have to like baseball, baseball, baseball.

634
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 1: It's total, just like it's Jedi mind control. It's not

635
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I can't let it happen. I have some

636
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: songs here, Oh man, there's a play some other stuff.

637
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 1: How about this one right here? Put that cross my

638
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: mind a little, dude, because I was thinking. First thought

639
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 1: that comes when you hear this up here, Red reverse Um,

640
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: great song right here in town. Really, without Bread, I

641
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't have anything. He Um really took me under his

642
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 1: wing as a writer, and I learned so much from

643
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: Bread about writing. And this was back when like when

644
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,159
Speaker 1: we had like the shoe box tape recorders, you know,

645
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 1: and and pen and paper, and he told me how

646
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: to write. One of the things he thought was just

647
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 1: to think out loud on paper, don't talk the whole

648
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: time when you're writing songs with somebody, Just to work

649
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 1: on something when you got an idea. Maybe. But I

650
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 1: remember playing that for Autumn House, who was an A

651
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: R at a Capital. I found her outside exit and

652
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 1: I got my guitar, ran out to her exit in

653
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: she came out of there. I sat it down on

654
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: my tailgate, play her that song acoustically. I was going

655
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: to the studio the next day, and she's like, cut

656
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: that song. That's so you run out to some prominent

657
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:35,239
Speaker 1: person here in town, say hey, stop and have her

658
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: watch you sing a song. She's A and R. She

659
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 1: still is over Capitol Records, and uh, and I she

660
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 1: was in the club, I think, exited and hearing listen

661
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: to somebody. I texted her art and text I called

662
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: her and she met me outside and I played it

663
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 1: for acoustically, like outside the club. And because I thought

664
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 1: it was it could be a big hit. Oddly enough,

665
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: I fought really hard for that not to be the

666
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 1: first single. So what did you want to be? The

667
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: first song called Wish You Would Break, which is more

668
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,239
Speaker 1: of a country thing. Um, you know, it's about your

669
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: wishing your your car steroid break because if you saw

670
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: and plays, you minded your girl wishing this picture frame

671
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,760
Speaker 1: would break that keeps falling down, but you don't have

672
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: the heart to throw it away because it's the pictures

673
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 1: of two y'all. In the last verse is about wishing

674
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 1: your heart breaks you just move on. It's a great song.

675
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: And I wrote that with Brett but Duncan Mike Dungan

676
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: from capitals like we're going with was I thinking so?

677
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: And you're glad it did? Yeah? All right, here we go,

678
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,119
Speaker 1: come a little closer. What makes me hear that song

679
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 1: makes me think Jesney I wrote that Brett Beavers, but

680
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: Chesney said that was a song that um when you

681
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:34,479
Speaker 1: heard that come in the radio, that's the reason why

682
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: he took me back out on the road. And again, man,

683
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: and you do so many hey people will do this

684
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: to me too, But I haven't heard that. I want

685
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:43,959
Speaker 1: to play this song a lot anymore. So I love

686
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: hearing that. It's a great song. You don't play talking.

687
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: It's a little slow. Can you say a little slow

688
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: because you feel like it takes the crowd down. You know,

689
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,080
Speaker 1: you gotta make a roller coaster out there when you're

690
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: you gotta find a way to take people on a ride.

691
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: And you can only have you gotta pick your You know,

692
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: our show is so high energy, and that's but what

693
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 1: makes to show great is what makes those high energy

694
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: songs work is the real moments and and and that.

695
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: Then you can only have so many in that song.

696
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: Just there's just no room for that one right now?

697
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: All right? How I had this one man's part of

698
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: my favorite songs. Another song. I don't do the live

699
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: show anymore, but I do it usually earlier than night

700
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 1: in the acoustics show. But when I think of that video,

701
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: and I think that song with the video for it,

702
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: because there's a scene where I'm getting rained on by

703
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: the rain machine and there but you can tell there's

704
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: no other rain like anywhere else just coming on. It's

705
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: like the cartoon whenever it's such a great video, there's

706
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: just that one moment because you know, if you're you

707
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: care so much about the work you do, you're like

708
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: that one scene drives you crazy. But Chris Sticky do

709
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 1: that video. It's actually when the best videos we ever did.

710
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 1: And uh, that song is um. I love that song

711
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,480
Speaker 1: and it's one of my favorite songs. But I usually

712
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: do it. I do a pre show acoustic performance for

713
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,239
Speaker 1: some folks and I usually I'm doing that song. It's

714
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 1: a good one. I to watch John May a couple

715
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: of weeks ago, I know how was that I was

716
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: speaking to boners. Did you get one? I did move

717
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: a little bit through one at the whole time, the

718
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 1: whole day. It wasn't picture moved. It was fully the

719
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: It was like by act yeah, And so I went,

720
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: non't know my point where I was gonna get so funny, dude,

721
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: I had a genuinely had a but you went to

722
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: John Mayor, come so first, slow down. It was moments

723
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: I come back to it. I have no idea what

724
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 1: I was like, I had a point. He did he

725
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: did who? I don't know? Talking about this song. I

726
00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: wrote that song and launched the Blown the same day

727
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 1: with Brett Pevers and Gonna Steve Bogarten. You know, it's

728
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: a great song. I would say it's one of the

729
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: songs that he could say more. I mean if I

730
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: was you know, it was a number one, but it

731
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: wasn't like a that was a lead single off an

732
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: album and it just wouldn't do much. But people still

733
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: love that song. I still do it live. But I

734
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: used that song for a lot of video content of

735
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: like our life on the Road. But that's a song

736
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: that if I'm being totally honest and critiquing myself I

737
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 1: just didn't say enough. You know. The verses need to

738
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: be more specific and more biting and more personal and

739
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 1: more um telling of who you are or the story

740
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 1: you're trying to tell and just not so um interchangeable,

741
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: so that that I love that song, but that I

742
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 1: was listening to. That's one thing. Every song you put

743
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: out I put up in this one on has to

744
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: be like say something really impact for or you know,

745
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: every line has to be just perfect. I know what

746
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: it is everyone. It was. So I went to John

747
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 1: Mayer and he had these packages. He was that they

748
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: sell right, and it was like, I didn't buy one

749
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: of them. I'm lucky. Yeah, I got to go hang

750
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: out and so but it was like, if you're a

751
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: super fan, you could pay like bucks and you could

752
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: go walk back still age and get like a banana

753
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 1: and touch John's I don't know what do you do?

754
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: Is there a little tour but you to see stuff

755
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 1: it's yes, child guitar and you pay hundred dollars to

756
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: do that and then you get you meet it me.

757
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 1: Whatever do you do that part of it where you're

758
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: like pay because it is worth something to get the experience.

759
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: We do a thing where you pay extra hundred dollars,

760
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,400

Speaker 1: saw people just paying money out the butt for mayor.

765
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 1: You know, it's a tough thing, you don't. You want

766
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: to keep your ticket prices as low as possible, and

767
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: and and and that's the whole thing out there. Like

768
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 1: one thing is they still think about Garth Brooks is

769
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 1: low ticket prices. Man, it's the coolest thing. You want

770
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: to keep low. But that's not the ticket though. That's

771
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 1: what that's for the rich. But but if you want

772
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: to like, yeah, if you want to, like you know,

00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: my girlfriend like gets bungee cables and straps them to

843
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:45,480

909
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 1: that comes in a box. That's cool, and it has

910
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of like it's cold as as ice packets

911
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 1: in there, and has a bunch of different like food options.

912
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: They're pretty easy to make. If you're not pretty good

913
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 1: Blue Apron, that's good. You get this guy over here,

914
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,040
Speaker 1: he Dirk says, like us, I'm not very good cook.

915
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,799
Speaker 1: I make mostly ppu J sandwiches and spaghetti. But Blue

916
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: Apron I may actually able to fall instructions and put

917
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 1: together pretty good meal. It's like he's reading the page,

918
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: so listen. Not all ingredients are created equal. Fresh high

919
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 1: quality agredients make the difference, and so Blue Apron is

920
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: affordable to if you're on a budget, like Dirk sist.

921
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 1: For less than ten bucks per person per meal, Blue

922
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: Apron deliver seasonal recipes with preportion ingredients, like he says,

923
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 1: and there's a card to that actually tells me how

924
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:30,960
Speaker 1: to make that. Without the card, I would make nothing.

925
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:32,719
Speaker 1: I would know how to make nothing. And I can

926
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,680

Speaker 1: and Jaren Johnson and but you know, uh and just

977
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,479
Speaker 1: trying to catch up on on life that I've missed

978
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,960
Speaker 1: from being from being down the road. Um, so that's

979
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 1: pretty much what Tuesday morning looks like, you know. Then

980
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 1: and trying to catch with cast too, you know, doing

981
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: stuff with her, just dumb stuff. I don't know. It

982
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,520
Speaker 1: was running errands, you know, gonna do some more groceries

983
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: or stuff. I don't know, take him someone's shoes get

984
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:08,719
Speaker 1: fixed the shoe store. Uh, just stuff, man, will you

985
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: right with somebody else for them? At this point, or

986
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,720
Speaker 1: you just right for yourself? I just right for myself.

987
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm I think enough writer, right for

988
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 1: the people. I'd love to get a cut from somebody else,

989
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 1: but I think, hey, when I see someone else right,

990
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: when I see another artist name on a song, my

991
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 1: first thought is like, how come this song wasn't good

992
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: enough for you? But you're pitching up to me, you know?

993
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: And second I don't. I just don't all the time.

994
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 1: And I don't think I mean from Ryan. With guys

995
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 1: like John Knight and Ross comprom every day, I'm sure

996
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,960
Speaker 1: I could get something cut by somebody else because those

997
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: guys are on fire. But I just right for me,

998
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:41,399
Speaker 1: I asked, because I guess three or four days ago

999
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: you text them like, hey, let's that's right, let's me

1000
00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: and you right? And I was like, what did I say?

1001
00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 1: You can test exactly what I said back to you.

1002
00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: You said, hey, let's write. What was my response? He said, no,

1003
00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 1: I'm not good enough for somebody, And I said, I

1004
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,280
Speaker 1: don't deserve to have to sit and write with Dirks

1005
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 1: and Ross. That's that's the only do anything. I would

1006
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:58,800
Speaker 1: never I only do stuff now at this point my

1007
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: career that like interests me excited, excise me. It's fun.

1008
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: And the idea of you mean, Ross in a room

1009
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: running would just be really fun because he's such a

1010
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 1: positive guy. Some people in this town that you could

1011
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: write like that's what I was like. I was like, no,

1012
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: I don't think we could get something really great. Maybe

1013
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: really we could get something really good, but I don't

1014
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 1: deserve that. It's not about deserve. Of course you deserve it.

1015
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,399
Speaker 1: You don't. We don't. We don't deserve anything we're doing.

1016
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: We're doing well, we work for and make it happen.

1017
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 1: And our Jake mom where fight? I Oh, you know

1018
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:37,080

1019
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: you not deserve to be in that room because not

1020
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: to do that, I mean you're on stage by yourself

1021
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,000
Speaker 1: doing comedy, which is probably sounds like the living like

00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,239
Speaker 1: It's been their whole lives to thinking about it. How

1171
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,880
Speaker 1: can I make an eight year old completely addicted to

1172
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,120
Speaker 1: this device? And these are smart, smart people working with

1173
00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 1: unlimited funds and on their coding all the time. And

1174
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,640
Speaker 1: my daughter gets on an iPad and it's completely hooked

1175
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 1: at some game and She's just an experiment. These people

1176
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:02,359
Speaker 1: the same Instagram and stuff they got going on where

1177
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 1: you're trying to keep the streak alive. You know how

1178
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:06,600
Speaker 1: many days in a row if you texted this you

1179
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 1: know whatever Instagram this person. It's like it's all geared

1180
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,839
Speaker 1: towards where we grew up without this stuff, so our

1181
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 1: brains had a chance to function. But when you see

1182
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 1: it through your kids and how it's just not right. Man.

1183
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 1: So I have to lead by example. If I have

1184
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 1: my phone out, it just takes once once or your

1185
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:25,320
Speaker 1: times so your kid to go dad, you know, so sorry,

1186
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:27,200
Speaker 1: you just feel like the worst person. So I don't

1187
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:28,800
Speaker 1: even take that phone in the house, Like I just

1188
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:31,040

00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 1: touched me. But it's the freedom is unbelievable. But yeah,

1192
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 1: as far as friends go, you know, I've been emailing more.

1193
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 1: I just like I am better off on email. I

1194
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:47,120

1389
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:28,360
Speaker 1: it loses in a different direction. It's it's it's more

1390
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:30,680
Speaker 1: just like this instead of it's it's like we just

1391
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 1: come together over the shared sentiment of holding on the

1392
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:37,960
Speaker 1: things that that means something to you. It's the most

1393
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 1: more important song important, but not the one you felt

1394
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,760
Speaker 1: flipped you like, oh boy, this is it. I remember

1395
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:46,040
Speaker 1: the day Drunk on a Plane like I heard it

1399
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: a real song, Drunk on a Plane. I thought you

1400
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 1: were messing with me. And I almost didn't put it

1401
01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,480
Speaker 1: on the record. Who makes that call then to put

1402
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 1: it on the record. It just you know, I'm I'm

1403
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 1: so everyone I work with he's such an open communication.

1404
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 1: If I like even the label with Mike and sending

1405
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:09,280
Speaker 1: everyone to Capital, If if I have doubts about something,

1406
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 1: they don't immediately jump on that U set to promote

1407
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,760
Speaker 1: their agenda. Everyone just is like cool. We all work

1414
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if it will work either,

1415
01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:35,800
Speaker 1: but it's it's I'm a pilot and I love you know.

1416
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 1: At the time, I was them two drinks and it

1417
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:41,040
Speaker 1: was it was. But it's a huge song for me,

1418
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:44,200
Speaker 1: for sure. It was a monster. It was. It's a monster, yeah,

1419
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 1: I mean and if it flew up the charts, yeah,

1420
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:49,080
Speaker 1: it was big. I remember the day it came on

1421
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 1: the radio. We did a debut, like a world premiere

1422
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 1: of it, and it played all day long. And I

1423
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 1: won't say it is, but I was like, man, this

1424
01:01:54,760 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 1: sounds really good, right, because I like things that are different.

1425
01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:00,040
Speaker 1: I don't. I like taking big chances and hitting the

1426
01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:03,000
Speaker 1: runs more so than being consistent and just you know,

1427
01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:06,360
Speaker 1: having that three batting average. So it came I was like, man,

1428
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:07,880
Speaker 1: I love this song because this is the son like

1429
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:10,240
Speaker 1: anything else, and that one of the radio gaps with

1430
01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: a big radio guy. He was like, it sucks. Sucks,

1431
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:15,360
Speaker 1: like this is never gonna work. It's too weirdos No,

1432
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 1: it's not. It wasn't right because but like I love this.

1433
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:21,360
Speaker 1: Like you know what song I loved yours it didn't

1434
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 1: work for you was Bourbon it can Talk You with

1435
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:28,760
Speaker 1: You and Casey I loved that song. That album cycles

1436
01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:30,480
Speaker 1: so fun because I put up Bourbon it didn't work,

1437
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,400
Speaker 1: pulled it back, put out I Hold On, which probably

1438
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 1: was a huge song with me, then drunkla Plane, which

1439
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 1: was honestly the biggest song on that album. But Bourbon,

1440
01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:41,120
Speaker 1: it was a great song that Hillary Lindsay wrote, and

1441
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,320
Speaker 1: I just I love that song. And I had to

1442
01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 1: call her up. She's down an Orange beach. She had

1443
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:46,640
Speaker 1: a few drinks and I was like hey. She's like, hey,

1444
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 1: what are you doing. And I was like, you're not

1445
01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 1: gonna believe this, but we're pulling that song and she

1446
01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,480
Speaker 1: was like so confused. She's just like I thought the

1447
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 1: next time I heard from you would be like the

1448
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 1: number one party. I'm like, I have never had a

1449
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,520
Speaker 1: pull song for my life. But it's a little summer

1450
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 1: and I'm getting all his feedback that the song is

1451
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,280
Speaker 1: too dark, and that's why I loved it, though I

1452
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 1: know I love it too, and I just everyone's everyone around.

1453
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 1: He's like, it's just not gonna work, and you've either

1454
01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:14,560
Speaker 1: work it for thirty weeks and haven't die in the

1455
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 1: thirties or make a change now. It was the first

1456
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:19,960
Speaker 1: song off the record, and um, I hate that. It

1457
01:03:20,040 --> 01:03:23,520
Speaker 1: was a great tune, but yeah, just that's what happened.

1458
01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:27,400
Speaker 1: Sometimes what for you because the article come in and say, hey,

1459
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 1: this is like, for example, I think, who wasn't my

1460
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,640
Speaker 1: American kids like Kenny cut a little big Town had it,

1461
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:40,640
Speaker 1: and Kenny cut it, and so no, no, Kenny had it,

1462
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 1: Like yeah, a little bit Gun had it. A little

1463
01:03:42,680 --> 01:03:44,919
Speaker 1: bit Gun had it. Shane was telling the story. Okay,

1464
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: now it's a little Shane had it. Shane, He's on

1465
01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:52,880
Speaker 1: a flight and uh, he's on a flight with Kenny.

1466
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:54,640
Speaker 1: He plays a song for Ki. He's like, I gotta

1467
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:56,360
Speaker 1: have a song. But Shane's like, I'm too scared to

1468
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:58,400
Speaker 1: tell him little bit Guns already cut it. So he

1469
01:03:58,480 --> 01:03:59,960
Speaker 1: has to call I have to call a little bit

1470
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,040
Speaker 1: down Kenny Caton like I would love to have this song,

1471
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:05,280
Speaker 1: and she's like oh, and Kenny's like I want to

1472
01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:08,360

1473
01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:10,200
Speaker 1: up to you, guys, it's your song. You've already started

1474
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:13,160
Speaker 1: paying your tracking it. And so a little bit down

1475
01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 1: gave the song American Kids to Kenny. So a lot

1476
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:18,680
Speaker 1: of people come to the stories like, man, I had

1477
01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:20,400
Speaker 1: this song and then I was like, yeah, last minute,

1478
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 1: I let it go. I have a bunch of songs

1479
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 1: that like I heard, Because the main things if you're

1480
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:28,360
Speaker 1: picking singles you got are picking songs. You gotta pick

1481
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 1: songs that are that are hits, but also their hits

1482
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 1: for you, and that's that's that's how you get the

1483
01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:35,040
Speaker 1: big hits. How the Park and I had three hundreds.

1484
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:37,440
Speaker 1: When you pick singles that are like made for you,

1485
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 1: you think the song is like Don't Close your Eyes

1486
01:04:39,440 --> 01:04:42,360
Speaker 1: by Keith Whitley, songs that like We're just that's the

1487
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:44,960
Speaker 1: single was made for that song. Um John Party's song

1488
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 1: during my boots. I heard that song I think before

1489
01:04:47,320 --> 01:04:49,600
Speaker 1: he before he cut it. And what did you think

1490
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:52,520
Speaker 1: when you heard it? Huge hit? This is a monster.

1491
01:04:52,680 --> 01:04:54,959
Speaker 1: This is a huge song. There's a lining there about

1492
01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:57,800
Speaker 1: a tractor, you know, I'm like, that is I don't

1493
01:04:57,800 --> 01:04:59,680
Speaker 1: have that tractor. Factor. You know, I don't have that

1494
01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:01,440
Speaker 1: things not what I do. So like I could either

1495
01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: try to change the song to make it work for

1496
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:05,400
Speaker 1: me or just let it go and hope those guys,

1497
01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:07,280
Speaker 1: you know, I want the songwriters. I want them to

1498
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:10,320
Speaker 1: find for songwriters, man, they might get one or two

1499
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,280
Speaker 1: great Now these guys they probably get five great songs

1500
01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 1: a year. Right. I don't want to like stand in

1501
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:18,400
Speaker 1: the way someone's like baby and then tied up, because

1502
01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:20,800
Speaker 1: that's the way Nashville used to be. People to hold

1503
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,919
Speaker 1: songs like years, you know, hold thirty or forty songs

1504
01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 1: to the record, and the hold was respected nowadays, and

1505
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:29,440
Speaker 1: as it should be. It's not like you either cut

1506
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:30,840
Speaker 1: it or you don't. And if you're just you know,

1507
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:32,960
Speaker 1: you're taking your time. I'm gonna picture to somebody else

1508
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:34,360
Speaker 1: and get them to cut it. You know. Songwriters have

1509
01:05:34,440 --> 01:05:35,880
Speaker 1: more power now, I think than they did back and

1510
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,640
Speaker 1: in the late nineties. Um, but so that song Whiskey

1511
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:44,280
Speaker 1: Lullabys a song that came that I her and I

1512
01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:47,240
Speaker 1: was like and then and and why why not that one? What? What?

1513
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:51,000
Speaker 1: What that just uh? I don't know just what you know,

1514
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,400
Speaker 1: I didn't hear it as to do what the way

1515
01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:55,840
Speaker 1: Brad hurt it, which is genius. Um, it just wasn't

1516
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,480
Speaker 1: I don't know. I just didn't have it, didn't do it,

1517
01:05:58,600 --> 01:05:59,960
Speaker 1: didn't do something for me. I don't know what it was.

1518
01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 1: But there's that happens all the time. But for me,

1519
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 1: I'd never go, oh my gosh, I'm kicking myself. I'm

1520
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 1: always like, I'm happy for that that song found the

1521
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 1: right home and made its way. There's there's always another

1522
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:11,680
Speaker 1: song out there. Who have you heard the opposite where

1523
01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 1: you got this song? Because somebody else was like made

1524
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:16,360
Speaker 1: it a hit and they have to be a man.

1525
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:18,000
Speaker 1: You know, someone on the beach was a big deal.

1526
01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:22,360
Speaker 1: It really was. Man, that was like, uh, you know,

1527
01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:27,360
Speaker 1: I had the song on hold, and there's five guys

1528
01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 1: that wrote that song and there's a lot of people

1529
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:31,880
Speaker 1: wanted that song and I just who wanted it. Um

1530
01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:36,240
Speaker 1: uh got wrote one of those the writers of the song. Uh,

1531
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:38,400
Speaker 1: I'm totally drawn a blake right now. My brain is,

1532
01:06:38,960 --> 01:06:40,200
Speaker 1: so what happens when you're on the road for three

1533
01:06:40,240 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 1: days straight. But well, actually, Michael Knox, I thinks I

1534
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 1: think Michael Knox wanted it for one of his artists

1535
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 1: and what it was and we kept saying that our

1536
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,960
Speaker 1: tour that luckily, I don't know if those battles my

1537
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 1: U one of my producers really goes in the trenches

1538
01:06:52,360 --> 01:06:53,960
Speaker 1: for that stuff. And it worked out. It was a

1539
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:55,920
Speaker 1: big hit for for me and it helps him go

1540
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 1: on the road and kind of have a song and

1541
01:06:57,440 --> 01:06:58,760
Speaker 1: talking about at the same time. You know, it's it's

1542
01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: to be tough when you're a new artist. You know,

1543
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:02,840
Speaker 1: a big song that it's different and you can kind

1544
01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:05,680
Speaker 1: of set you apart from other people. Um, but I

1545
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:07,480
Speaker 1: hopefully they're happy there was a big hit. You know.

1546
01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:09,560
Speaker 1: It's like Lady, you know, Lady has you Look Good?

1547
01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 1: And and that was Thomas Rhett's first that's his song,

1548
01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:15,760
Speaker 1: and it was he didn't write it, he had it

1549
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 1: and he was like he was gonna cut it. It's

1550
01:07:18,360 --> 01:07:20,400
Speaker 1: awesome the whole, I mean and the whole. But every

1551
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,200
Speaker 1: artist does different things with it too. That's that's what

1552
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 1: we don't know too, Like what are you going to

1553
01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,280
Speaker 1: do different about? Like Kenny's totally was like this beach

1554
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,160
Speaker 1: five who who knows how a little big towne put

1555
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 1: it and tracked it when what they would have had

1556
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:34,240
Speaker 1: as a part of this song and it's it's it's yeah, totally,

1557
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:35,920
Speaker 1: it's you know, I think all you can do. I mean,

1558
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:38,640
Speaker 1: it's just the business we're in in in life, in generals,

1559
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: you have to like you cannot like hold like that.

1560
01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,840
Speaker 1: You you gotta be have an attitude of gratitude and

1561
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:47,560
Speaker 1: be thankful for what you got. And if something it's

1562
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,760
Speaker 1: all meant to be, it's it's that's there's a reason

1563
01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,520
Speaker 1: why you didn't cut that song. There's just want someone

1564
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 1: else cut the song. And otherwise you your drivers so

1565
01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:56,160
Speaker 1: crazy and you're wound be resentful and you're gonna be

1566
01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:58,120
Speaker 1: You're you're playing a small game and you should be

1567
01:07:58,160 --> 01:07:59,920
Speaker 1: playing a much bigger game where you're looking at a

1568
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,480
Speaker 1: macro view of it, not just this micro like song song, song,

1569
01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:06,480
Speaker 1: song song. If you're you know, that's not that's not

1570
01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:08,440
Speaker 1: the work. People trying to pitch you songs all the time.

1571
01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 1: Not not your people and not people that are in

1572
01:08:11,360 --> 01:08:13,600
Speaker 1: your second tier. But like walking down the street people

1573
01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:16,960
Speaker 1: I get stuff, Yeah, I get stuff from obviously it

1574
01:08:17,040 --> 01:08:19,800
Speaker 1: shows and I my email address. A lot of people

1575
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:21,720
Speaker 1: have my email address. I get a lot of songs

1576
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:23,439
Speaker 1: out there and that I try to listen to them.

1577
01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:25,519
Speaker 1: And but you do. Try to listen to them. Maybe

1578
01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:28,120
Speaker 1: I'll I mean, I'm pretty quick. I mean I can

1579
01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:29,640
Speaker 1: go seven eight seconds to know whether it's from me

1580
01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:31,000
Speaker 1: or not. It might might be a great song, but

1581
01:08:31,080 --> 01:08:32,960
Speaker 1: it's not for me. What about the legalities of it though,

1582
01:08:32,960 --> 01:08:35,040
Speaker 1: because I have because listen, I write dumb songs, right,

1583
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,040
Speaker 1: I don't even on the road. Is someone like hands

1584
01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,560
Speaker 1: me a CD, I don't touch it. I goes to

1585
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,160
Speaker 1: Tom or Jay round of my guys. And because you

1586
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 1: have songwriters insurance, because if I have to have it,

1587
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,960
Speaker 1: you have it like crazy, right, you know, I don't

1588
01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:48,960
Speaker 1: know if I have you for sure, if they're if

1589
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:52,519
Speaker 1: my business manager makes me have it, find out I know,

1590
01:08:52,680 --> 01:08:54,160
Speaker 1: like talk to the guys in the town that have

1591
01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 1: it and they and they say, it's pretty amazing. But

1592
01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 1: I'll find out right now if I have it, I

1593
01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:00,360
Speaker 1: don't think I do. And maybe my business it makes

1594
01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:02,200
Speaker 1: me have it because she knows I probably actudally steal

1595
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:04,479
Speaker 1: a song and because I'm not good, she'd be like,

1596
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,280
Speaker 1: it's funny. You have to make sure. Yeah, I feel

1597
01:09:08,320 --> 01:09:10,559
Speaker 1: fun it right now, I definitely have it. Let's see here,

1598

1600
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,280
Speaker 1: songs on the record. I don't want to I'll be

1601
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 1: the Moon because Ryan's been in here, just saw Maaron

1602
01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:23,519
Speaker 1: Max stage it up and Thomas to show us like

1603
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:26,639
Speaker 1: Kimble untr a song together because it kind of ruins

1604
01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:28,760
Speaker 1: the chance of us to be a single that I

1605
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,320

1608
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,479
Speaker 1: He's been telling him for two years, Like the song means,

1609
01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:43,439
Speaker 1: it's one of the best songs I've heard. It's such

1610
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:45,720
Speaker 1: a unique like take on it. And like you, I'm

1611
01:09:45,720 --> 01:09:48,200
Speaker 1: always looking for songs are different, say that way you

1612
01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:51,120
Speaker 1: haven't heard before. The idea of like I'll be the

1613
01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:52,800
Speaker 1: moon man, that guy can be the sun. He can

1614
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:54,320
Speaker 1: be in your life during the daytime, but I'll be

1615
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:56,240
Speaker 1: there with you at night. And that's such a good idea.

1616
01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:58,320
Speaker 1: And she kills it. She sings that they're part of

1617

Speaker 1: their so awesome and I wish it was a single.

1618
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:02,720

01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:02,839
Speaker 1: of really bringing like everybody in that's under the country umbrella.

1666

01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:16,200

Speaker 1: you know, I mean I love all the vessels, they're great,

1673
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 1: but having like festivals that aren't just the kind of

1674
01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:26,479
Speaker 1: same feeling that kind of have this unique like ninety

1675
01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:28,880
Speaker 1: one has its own feel and Faster Horse does its

1676
01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:31,960
Speaker 1: feeling and Watershed has its feeling. The well, I'll go

1677
01:12:32,120 --> 01:12:33,800
Speaker 1: with Brian and the golf cart and go drive around

1678
01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:35,960
Speaker 1: people tailgating hole to show me where this is where

1679
01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:37,559
Speaker 1: we set this place up. Just to get ice, man,

1680
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:39,200
Speaker 1: they get ice any time to one here and some

1681
01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 1: block and this is a pond they can go fishing,

1682
01:12:41,400 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 1: and they can get fishing poles from right here and

1683
01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 1: go fishing this pond. And he really makes it unique.

1684
01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:48,400
Speaker 1: And hopefully we're doing some thing together. I'm doing faster horses.

1685
01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:52,559
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm doing watershed. I don't know. Does it feel

1686
01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:54,840
Speaker 1: like you live two lives. I do live two lives

1687
01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:58,400
Speaker 1: because it's like the normal dude during the middle of

1688
01:12:58,479 --> 01:12:59,920
Speaker 1: the week and then the rock star in the week.

1689
01:13:00,320 --> 01:13:03,080
Speaker 1: I'm literally I've had a chance to do like some

1690
01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:05,640
Speaker 1: TV stuff and it would make for great TV, but

1691
01:13:05,720 --> 01:13:07,080
Speaker 1: I just don't want to have like cameras on me.

1692
01:13:07,160 --> 01:13:11,960
Speaker 1: But because of aviation and because and and I'm treating

1693
01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 1: myself on Who I am on the road is definitely

1694
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 1: who I am my fans, I'm honestly in front of them,

1695
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:17,760
Speaker 1: and that's a big part of my personality. When I

1696
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:21,080
Speaker 1: get on stage and go crazy, um, but I am

1697
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 1: literally I'll be I'll be flying home and the next

1698
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,400
Speaker 1: morning my kids are younger, I'll be like in a

1699
01:13:26,479 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 1: mommy me class with a truly baton, you know, like

1700
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,080
Speaker 1: doing like the things, but no one the right mon

1701
01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:34,320
Speaker 1: possibly think that I was doing this, you know, like

1702
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 1: because I mean, I'm all in on the dad thing.

1703
01:13:36,320 --> 01:13:38,640
Speaker 1: Like I I there's nothing beneath me, nothing I won't do.

1704
01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:42,519
Speaker 1: I won't do anything, and so it's a it's definitely

1705
01:13:42,880 --> 01:13:44,680
Speaker 1: I physically I am two places it once too. I

1706
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:46,760
Speaker 1: mean I get very little sleep. I know, I'm up

1707
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,840
Speaker 1: every morning early because I want to have a full

1708
01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:51,960
Speaker 1: life here and one thing it takes a toll on

1709
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:55,640
Speaker 1: is the sleep. But I really am physically sometimes in

1710
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:57,720
Speaker 1: two places at the same time. I want to end

1711
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:00,800
Speaker 1: on this. And I wonder if guy a question for

1712
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:04,040
Speaker 1: you are cool? Uh, okay, let me head first and

1713
01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 1: then I'll come with you. Guys, what NAP? I walked

1714
01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:09,639
Speaker 1: by your book every day and it was in my closet.

1715
01:14:10,439 --> 01:14:14,439
Speaker 1: They're not symbol drives me crazy all the time I see,

1716
01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:16,920
Speaker 1: I go do you get paid on that nap? Nothing?

1717
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:22,439
Speaker 1: Zero question zero. NAPA buys a studio sponsorship and it's

1718
01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:24,439
Speaker 1: in there. And and I wanted that book to be

1719
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:28,080
Speaker 1: just random pictures. And so just like the book is

1720
01:14:28,120 --> 01:14:30,920
Speaker 1: all random stories and I just want and NAPA, we

1721
01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:33,160
Speaker 1: had to make the decision do we not choose the

1722
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:36,479
Speaker 1: picture because there's a logo, or do it is a

1723
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:38,479
Speaker 1: part of my life and a part of time, we

1724
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:40,960
Speaker 1: were like, you know what, they just I really like

1725
01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:43,360
Speaker 1: working with an appo because they're fantastic, but also it

1726
01:14:43,439 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 1: was like, you know, this is NAP Weirdly, they're a

1727
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:47,880
Speaker 1: big part of my life because they allowed me to eat.

1728
01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,160
Speaker 1: The sponsors of the show allowed me to eat. We

1729
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:51,880
Speaker 1: had to have a meeting to go on the picture

1730
01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:54,240
Speaker 1: of the book. There's a NAPI logo. Do we cut it?

1731
01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,360
Speaker 1: Do we make it black? Absolutely? And it was just

1732
01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,400
Speaker 1: I just tried in that book too. As much of

1733
01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:03,600
Speaker 1: my life there really was just let it be. I

1734
01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:05,439
Speaker 1: just see that all the time. I was like, it's

1735
01:15:05,479 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: so funny what you got. That's so funny you asked

1736
01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:08,439
Speaker 1: that because we had a whole meeting about that. I

1737
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:10,120
Speaker 1: was like, just let it be and no, no, no

1738
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:12,080
Speaker 1: money extra. We don't think we ever even told him.

1739
01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:15,920
Speaker 1: They're happy. We know, yeah, um okay, might hear my question.

1740
01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:18,600
Speaker 1: So when the a c MS happened and you were

1742
01:15:21,479 --> 01:15:23,559
Speaker 1: crazy how call him and chill you were in between.

1743
01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:26,519
Speaker 1: We were just talking before going on and I just

1744
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:27,680
Speaker 1: got to go on do album in the year and

1745
01:15:27,680 --> 01:15:29,000
Speaker 1: I was rooting for you, and I said publicly, I

01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:30,479
Speaker 1: wanted you to ain album in the year you didn't win,

1747

Speaker 1: I opened I looked at the card ahead of time,

1749
01:15:35,400 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 1: and I saw that it was Miranda who won, and

1750
01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: I went over to Mary and told her so as

1751
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:41,519
Speaker 1: if she wanted to tell you, so you wouldn't be like,

1752
01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:43,960
Speaker 1: let did she tell you or did you see it live?

1753
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:50,160
Speaker 1: I mean because because I went over, you know, the

01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:56,480
Speaker 1: don't know anyone more competitive than me. I'm really really competitive.

1756
01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:58,320
Speaker 1: But and there's times I've lived and died by the

1757
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:00,120

1759

1781
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:02,160
Speaker 1: not gonna get a way. That's the way it goes,

1782
01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:04,479
Speaker 1: and it deserves certainly. So. She makes great records, got

1783
01:17:04,479 --> 01:17:06,559
Speaker 1: a great voice. He's a great friend and I'm happy

1784
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:08,760
Speaker 1: for she. And it was a double out. As an

1785
01:17:08,840 --> 01:17:10,960
Speaker 1: art piece, it was a fantastic art piece. I'm just

1786
01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:13,400
Speaker 1: saying for you. I looked I wanted to see it

1787
01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,000

1788
01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:16,519

1789
01:17:16,840 --> 01:17:19,080
Speaker 1: just so she's used to, you're not winning. My sister

Speaker 1: better be that than nothing else. But I I'm I'm

1792
01:17:25,320 --> 01:17:27,479
Speaker 1: so appreciative every worship been nominated for it, him saying

1793
01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:28,960
Speaker 1: this in all honesty, But I would tell any younger

1794
01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:31,479
Speaker 1: artists out there, do not make that your goal. Do

1795
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,200
