I don't know where I get it from. My family has no sense of humor, none. It's a genetic mutation, I guess. I tried drawing naked pictures when I was in the third grade. You'd have seen how funny my mom was then. Or when I took a bat to a car my dad had been buffing all day. He's not funny.
It's fun to be up for multiple things. It's nice to look at the list this time and it not all be for one song.

... Albert Lee and I have become real close friends, and he comes out anytime I'm in the L.A. area, and he'll sit in for the whole show ! ... we've got a habit of doing that ... in Austin Redd Volkaert does the same thing ... it's fun ... I love to make it a guitar thing and the audience doesn't know any different - they think he's some new band member they don't know. They don't realize Albert's the reason we all play Teles ! ...
I have a to-do list and I have a farm I care for, and things I like to do for fun - going to movies and all that stuff. It's a painfully normal life!
If there's a song where there's a possibility of guitar stuff that would be fun to listen to, go for it. Don't worry about what anybody thinks.
I think the Festival is great for the music and for the fans. It's a great way for everyone to come together, and I know everyone who comes has a blast. It gives a real lift to Country Music because it's such a positive event, and it's fun for everyone.
The days get boring. The thing I like least would be the traveling. It's never fun to check baggage three or four times in a couple days.
I can't help but include some of the lighthearted stuff. I guess that's the way I observe things. My favorite saying is, 'If you're going to laugh about something later, you might as well start now.
Buck gave birth to a movement. At the time when he came through, his music was so different. He was a maverick in the true sense of the word.
I don't have any interest in doing something that's weak musically.
Some artists would rather go in there and let some other things dictate the kind of record they do, but I've got such a great team.
There are many things I can improve on. I'm challenged every day, and I still want to work hard and earn what I've been afforded.
It surprises a few people, we have a full string orchestral intro on the album. I think this album is what a sequel should be. It goes to a new place.
