If you're not on a major label today, you're not gonna get played. They've got the market sewed up.

I'm set to have my best year ever: I'm hiring some acts and there will be a show in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening. I'm going to use my theater to its fullest potential.

I had some airline stock, but the airlines tanked. I didn't have a lot of money in them, though.

When a record co. finds a guy now, they want to own everything. They want to own the rights to market that person's particular name. They want a piece of the action all the way through.

All I have to concentrate on is my performing.

I never made any money off of my records. It gave me the name across the country so that I could do some of the things in my personal appearances.
