Songs like the Buck Owens tune, for example, are very simple and straightforward, and recording it really gave me a chance to get into and get a sense of Buck's personality, a feel for that whole Bakersfield sound.

I work a lot, and not just in Las Vegas.

In between that time, I've done book narrating, you know, books on tape for Dove Audio.

And I think that we're more of an alternative act in that sense, and that flavor comes across to the audience.

When the audience leaves, I'd like them to feel positive when they go.

I've had the big ups and the big downs.

I'm not a toy boy, bellybutton band, so I don't have to worry about that. Actually, I never did.
