I don't understand how a musician can play 90 minutes on stage and then not dedicate a little bit of time to hang out at their merch table. It's not like digging a ditch or something; you're standing there thanking people for coming out to see you.

I want to keep my fan base supplied with a steady chain of music.

You should work at everything you do and try to perfect it as best you can.

I'll work to maintain my work ethic out on the road, playing my shows, giving 110%, keeping God first, my family second, and treating my fans like royalty.

I would rather have 100,000 fans for a lifetime than a million for a couple years.

I think most performers are just lazy.

There's just enough drinking and cheating songs around without me adding to them. Unless you've got something better than "Misery and Gin" by Merle Haggard, you're beating a dead horse.
