I've Always Stood Up For Country Music.

If Anything Good Came Out Of 9/11, To Me, Was That People Were So Cynical About The World - All You Hear About On The News Is All The Bad Stuff Everyday, But What Was Refreshing To Me Was After That, You Saw How Many Good People There Are Out There. For Every One Bad One, There's A Thousand Good Ones.

I've Had Several Working-man Songs That I Like.

I've Been A Lot Of Places, And My Wife, Denise, She Likes A Lot Of The Fancy Restaurants. I'm More Of A Basic Eater. I Still Go Into Cracker Barrel. Those Are The Kind Of People Who Like The Kind Of Music I'm Making.

I've Always Said That If You Have Songs On The Radio And Get Played, You've Got To Have A Tour To Support That.

You Just Write About Things That Happen.
