You want women to think of you in a sexy manner. It's all part of the business. It drives ticket sales. It's all a part of it.

A big part of country music is a way of life, at least from my standpoint. That's how I craft my music from my own life experiences.

I want to be comfortable on TV. If I'm comfortable, they're comfortable watching me. I think nothing's more icky than watching icky on TV.

Life's up and down from the time you get here to the time you leave.

My focus is trying to make great music and putting on great shows, and whatever happens beyond that is a bonus to me.

I thought being on stage was an amazing feeling, but there is nothing that can top watching my wife bring our son into this world.

My first memories of music were country music and Ronnie Milsap. Where I grew up, it was what you listened to. And anything else, you were somewhat out of place.
